Thanks for the link, Charley. I just signed up. Here's something odd, and supposedly true: "Bus Driver Replaces Mental Patients" (in a South African newspaper) HARARE, Zimbabwe (04-04) - After 20 mental patients disappeared from his bus, the driver replaced them with sane citizens and delivered them to a mental hospital. The unidentified bus driver was transporting 20 mental patients from the capital city of Harare to Bulawayo Mental Hospital when he decided to stop for a few drinks at an illegal roadside liquor store. Upon his return he was shocked to discover that all the mental patients had escaped. Desperate for a solution, the driver stopped at the next bus stop and offered free bus rides to several people. He then delivered them to the mental hospital and informed the staff they were easily excitable. It took the medical personnel three days to uncover the foul play. The real mental patients are still at large.
