Poison ivy! Now yer thinking. I like it. I think we need not resort
to police if we use an appropriately noxious plant. We can use my
wireless videocam.

You know what we really need are snappy sound-bite slogans
that will fit on a bumper sticker. The low-brow crowd has used
this so effectively for promoting religion, such as: "god said it,
I believe it, that settles it." and "Adam and Eve, not Adam and
Steve."

Now of course, these saying have us writhing helplessly in the
iron grip of logic, but there is the possibility we could stoop as
low and have our own bumper stickers: "The Greens want to
take away our medical treatment" and "Genetically modified
crops help save babies from starvation." That kinda thing. spike
