"In 1970 Australia suffered again, ... when there was a wheat surplus and weather favorable for mouse breeding. Barrels filled with water and bait accumulated as many as a thousand drowned mice in a single night. Drivers reduced their speed to a comparative crawl because on the rippling, slippery carpet of mice that covered the roads, braking might cause an uncontrollable skid." (Gregg, Plague - An Ancient...) To which I can only add: SLKERRRRRRTCH! <bang> D*mn mice! ------------------------- Yours for a more psychopathic society Zozzles The Freep
