There was a short story based on this idea. I don't remember where I read it. I think it was called Mousetrap. It was not in an SF magazine. Hah! (Memory is a really wierd thing.) It was in Life, circa 1980. (I remembered this because I tried to remember what the magazine *felt* like, and I realized it was big and with lots of pictures, then I remembered I once had a collection of about 5 Life magazines from 1979--1980, and ....) -- John Lacey, Schemer, TeXnician, and MacHacker "It's hard to tell you how I feel without hurting you." --Soho
