Paul,

My opinion of you has just greatly increased.

We have a saying at my model helicopter club (these things can kill in the
wrong hands).

"Common sense isn't very common", and "Most people are
stupid".

If you want to get an idea of the average voter's intellect, tape an
episode
of "Kilroy", and watch it when you get home. It really is quite
frightening.
