I don't think it's going to happen. But if it does, I can tell you one thing, and that is that this nation is never going to go to war with an unfair draft again. This time it will be the children of the yuppies that are forced to learn to kill and to get by with no legs. -- Carl There you go again, Mr. Optimist. Have they closed down the Canadian border already? ...Eh? <Hoo Hoo> Even if you draft 'em do you really think they'll do the heavy lifting? ...I hate to tell you this, but if I get to choose the "children" who'll go out to protect my tired, old, barely democratic bones, it sure as heck isn't going to be the corps of yuppie puppies! <g> Besides, if we did go to war "to take down the Arab Middle East" - and really now, where else are we going to go - we could easily have worse casualties in civilian ranks than in the active military. ...Unless you think all the folks who live there are riding the "Short Bus." ...Eh? <vbg> 0\|0
