I wish we had a like icon on this forum, you'd get several with the help of Ben :-)

I guess they don't want just anyone hanging around. I wonder if you can use a TDS in the parking lot.

I have to admit, it was fun while it lasted, but figured it would quickly digress. That's a very interesting list indeed. I could imagine the discussion that occurred with the powers at be while they put it all together.

Here's one that I had to actually look up: What's a Cestus? Would have been alot easier to just say "armored gloves". And, don't you think you'd raise a few eyebrows dragging in a water canon?

The only things they want you to bring to any of the political convenetions are your wallets and your votes. I would rather spend mine on Dutch bling and actually get some value out of my time and money.

Conventions are not about comfort. To be a bit tense is protocol.

Thank you !!, i had a feeling you would and apreciate it, the last thing we want is an escalating debate on those topics.
Shug is right as well, it's not the place where you want to get too relaxed.
