  As many of you probably know, there is a nationally-franchised chain
of gunnery practice ranges called "Bulletstop".  Patrons can bring
their own weapons, or can rent from a large and tasteful selection
of shootin' irons, including Uzis, for reasonable hourly rates.

  The outstanding feature of these shooting galleries is that you
can bring in ANYTHING YOU WANT as targets.  Popular objects for
liquidation include personal computers, faulty disc drives,
impenetrable documentation, and all those other things which
frustrate or annoy.

  I've been to one in Colorado.  It's an excellent concept, well
implemented: much needed in urban areas.  Of course, we'll NEVER
see one here in the Kennedy state...  despite the potentially
enormous M.I.T./Harvard business...
