    What I want to know is...

    ...does Katherine Harris have an radio transmitter? (Not that I'm volunteering to find out, mind you...) Frankly, I've known a few pythons and they're better company and generally do less harm than Harris and her ilk.

    On a serious note, good story on a serious problem.
