That's right... Mike didn't mention guns... he only
alluded to them and mentioned a specific part of a
gun.

You win on the technicality, but lose on common sense
and honesty.

Or is anybody keeping score?

I think Mike wins the "zero extropian value flame bait
award" just on numbers alone and remember he gets
extra credit for initiating the non-extropian
rhetoric.

Or you could look at it as two old guard political
hacks trying to exersize their wit at the expense of
their opposition. Attemps at humor, as it were...
