Hehehe! LOL. Funny you should mention BB guns as that would be my
husband's answer! Is it unethical to use BB guns in the workplace? My BB
gun will be a resignation letter and later dropping off my consulting
brochures explaining how OS and AI could really help out this close-minded
company. But........they'll never see it.......oh well, as the principle
says " whoever attends (to life) are the right people".......and all the
others can figure it out on their own, I guess.
Thanks for the wonderful story, Harrison!

Well -- how about a story? We have a roosting colony of Black Buzzards
that
inhabit our neighborhood in the fall (prior to migration, mating and other
pleasures of buzzardly life). Roosting means that they come in and sit in
our trees/roofs/out buildings. Not just a few -- but a 100 or so. These
are
not small birds! Jet black with 6' wing span. Sinister to put it mildly.
And
as they say in another connection -- garbage in -- garbage out. Does not
improve the neighborhood!!!
Solution: (Might work in Open Space???) Small rockets at dusk (when they
are
nestling in for the night). Nothing lethal -- but definitely attention
getting. BB Guns -- A few well placed shots to the tail-feathers seems to
clear the roost!

No offence -- but are you suggesting that we add buzzards and bats? Or
maybe
they are already there? Interesting possibilities :-)

Sort of an interesting perspective about space that "seems" open, but
really
isn't. Sorry if this offends anyone in regards to the religious
connotation.
