That's like a stun gun. Lots of places keep tight controls on stun guns and air tasers, but they are workable in some situations. It's really funny that people make hand weapons like knives illegal but a gun can be bought at wal-mart. Not that I'm against guns, but they do much more damage much

Stun guns require contact with your opponent. They touch two electrodes to their skin. Air tasers use two thin wires attached to darts, like short needles, which puncture the skin and deliver a different kind of shock which is usually more powerful. The words taser and stun gun have become

I must take issue with the idea that striking is impractical for a blind person. It's a matter of distancing. Get in close and your lack of vision becomes far less of a handicap. In fact, if you've trained yourself to have good tactile and tactical awareness, the contact of one hand on your

I have studied Aikido, Aikijujitsu, Northern Shaolin kung fu and Spanish fencing. Any martial art is accessible if you are willing to put in the time and have a teacher who sees the possibilities. I learn best by having techniques performed upon me and have risen high enough to do some

I couldn't see lazers in Monty, however something like a mini-volcano might work. However I think Tom's far enough in development that too many addditions at this point won't be happenning. Ron - Original Message - From: Charles Rivard [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list
