With all of this discussion on razors blades et. al., it occurred to me that what we really need is a better mouse or theif trap: Use one of those infra red heat sensors and trigger a device that automatically bars the windows, doors, and locks everything. Then the crook is locked in your car and not unlike so many raccoons in raccoon traps, he has to sit there until you let him out. Assume he's armed: have some kind of warning system to warn you that you now have a guest and let the local swat team deal with him. Thanks for reading, just a wacky idea I had!!

Just set off some sleeping-gas, and after a delay to alow the gas to work, set off an alarm. (Either of these systems would be most embarasing to set off on your own :-) ) -- Opinions expressed are public domain, and do not belong to Lotus Development Corp. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Simcha-Yitzchak Lerner {genrad|ihnp4|ima}!wjh12!talcott!sesame!slerner {cbosgd|harvard}!talcott!sesame!slerner slerner%sesame@harvard.ARPA
