	I remember with a certain amount of (sick) humor being a boy in the
scouts and happening across an electric fence with a group of similiar
aged boys. The Eagle scout amongst us rookies decided that HE would like
to know what would happen if his spit hit the dangerous thing. I suppose
that he was expecting some kind of fireworks show but instead the spit
never disengaged from his lips (considered a drool) and the poor Bast*rd
got hit right smak dab in the lips (OUCH!!! :-{ ). The ensuing lurch was
a dead giveaway as to his ultimate fate though he said nothing (we did-
%-} ).
