"... and fears for kids going trick-or-treating"

Because of guns? Around here, it has been largely stopped since the incidents, years back, of "treats" with embedded razor blades, poisons, etc. I'm not really up on it, but I think the police still offer to run the goodies the kids collect through metal-scanners.

Just for accuracy John, those tales of razor blades and such that we grew up with were myths. I highly recommend this book.

Your comments are welcome. You don't need to enter a URL and you don't need a "valid" email address, either. Note that MT Blacklist is installed to flag suspiciously spam-like strings. Unfortunately, because of the bastard spammers, the strings "google.com" and "yahoo.com" are currently banned as well. Another common bounce is any word containing the string "cialis" which means words such as socialism will be rejected. Try putting a hyphen into a word like that.
