Cramer {uunet,pyramid,pixar,tekbspa}!optilink!cramer Actually, I have found a big bag of dirty socks to be a great weapon of first choice. They worked like a charm on the customs guy at Cincinnati Airport when I came back from London. He wanted to search all my stuff (like I had a AUG in my suitcase!), so I presented the plastic bag with laundry in it. He looked and basically decided going through those damned socks wasn't worth the trouble. This scenario works well with non-violent opponents. As for when you run up against REAL trouble, run away! This or else tell them something to keep them busy while you choke them with your car radio antenna.. :-) Thanks to all who provided help and suggestions for the transport of my evil assault rifle collection.
