Subject: RE: BS: Silly/Stupid Product Descriptions
A few years ago, me and my pal BJ (she's an artist who once designed an electrical board game for two players that would electrocute the winner) came up with the notion of an actual "bug zapper" for people. This would be installed in a large semi trailer, and the only door to the trailer would be plainly marked in multiple languages "Extreme Danger: Do Not Enter". Around 3:00AM, you'd park this downtown in a city (we thought Washington, DC might be a good beginning) and simply leave it there. What do you think? Would this help thin the idiot population? Should we apply for a NEA grant, or do you suppose private funding might be available?
