I have a neice who's going to graduate from college this coming May. She likes to go hunting. Not because of the the shooting, but because it gives her *another* chance to sit alone and quietly in the woods, listening to herself and what's around her. Not many 22 year olds can do that. Heck, not many 92 year olds can do that!

(She rarely takes ammunition with her and has never shot anything but paper. She just likes to go do this, as well as take hikes alone in the woods and state parks. As for her safety, well, I wouldn't want to lay an unwelcome hand on her....)
