<flame retardants might make good bug repellants>

A point in defense of martillo:  He didnt actually say that we in
America *should* do as the Islamic culture has done.  He did say
that if women [and men, I might add] want to pay the price, [his words]
then rape can be eliminated. 

No one has doubted that there is little rape in Islam.  But I do doubt
that even trying to impose Islamic culture on America would ever work.
