http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4210558.stm "For the first time in 13 years Brazil has seen a fall in the number of deaths caused by firearms. Last year 36,000 people were killed by guns - a drop of 8% from 2003, according to the health ministry. The government says the change is due to innovative disarmament measures, including a gun buy-back scheme. The figures were released on Friday, seven weeks before a national referendum on whether to ban outright the sale of guns." -- William T Goodall Mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web : http://www.wtgab.demon.co.uk Blog : http://radio.weblogs.com/0111221/ "The three chief virtues of a programmer are: Laziness, Impatience and Hubris" - Larry Wall _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l ok I have to say it "Guns don't kill people, people kill people."
