I agree that if other Churches are allowed to ring bells for religious

I guess I do not understand how you equate the two. If mosques are
allowed loudspeakers, for instance, then perhaps churches should be
allowed to use electronic augmentation for their bells as well? Is that
what you are saying? (I don't understand why rec.boats got on this
list!)

Allowing Muslims to use loudspeakers doesn't mean everyone else is going to
do the same. Jehovah's Witnesses robots knock on your door when you're busy,
trying to make you take stupid pamphlets. They're legally allowed to do so,
but you don't see Hassidic Jews doing it, right? It's just a difference in
the approach.

Having said this, I'd take any opportunity to murder anyone who blasted
prayer announcements over a loudspeaker at 5-something in the morning. But,
this is a personal view, not a legal one. :-)

By the way, won't noise ordinances take care of some of this problem?


A little of ACDC's 'Back in Black' would take care of the problem, played
on loudspeakers and with oh say-- 600 watt amplifiers at the same time
as the prayer calls.

Doug, I know that you are smart enough to check for cross-posting?

I respond to the message and I don't care if it was originally cross posted.
That's the responsibility of the message's originator. And, notice the
correct use of the apostrophe, mosquito.

"I'm sure not one single potential terrorist has ever thought of using a boat
to deliver a bomb. But now that you've told (CROSSPOSTED) them, all hell will
break loose."

I guess you haven't heard of the USS Cole

Blackman new to this marine warfare thing. Next week's he's going to invent
the Grumman TBF Avenger, a propellor driven torpedo bomber, and try to sell
the idea to the Navy. He's also planning on informing various Great
Lakes-based Coast Guard stations that terrorists might try and boat over
from Canada. The CG has already had foot patrols at our harbor and others,
but I was under the impression that they were trying to figure out who keeps
leaving empty bait containers all over the breakwaters. Blackman will
straighten them out, though.

Did you or did you not suggest that our discussion of marine-based terrorist
attacks, combined with crossposting was a bad thing because it might give
the bad guys dangerous ideas???

Please show evidence that I have a "stash of weed". Can you? Yes or no only.

Henry's spending too much time at his local 'icehouse' and the world is
passing by.
