Corresponds with recent news reports that police academies are hard up 
for shooting practice as there is a shortage of bullets. I suppose they 
have become something of an American export item. Future industry the 
separation of lead and brass from sand?

Bottom line text on C-Span... "White House reports Osama on the run in a 
cave." Must be a large cave. How do they know?

Someone came up with a stickless gum in order to make it easier to clean 
gum wads off from sidewalks and streets. I have also heard that there 
are countries where it is illegal to chew gum in public, let alone spit 
it out.

In America we fret over gun control whereas in the world-at-large the 
most often used weapon is the machete.
