IJMC - For the Birds

I have a long way to go. I'm sitting here miffed at something fairly 
minor. I'm still letting small things get to me. Something to be said for 
admitting that, but I'd rather it simply not come up...kinda scary that 
I'm partially basing how I'd like to behave on a fictional demon...but 
hey, you've got to find your role-models somewhere, and most of our real 
life people aren't doing such a good job anymore. Doing the right thing 
isn't that hard, we just choose not to all too often. I'm going to cheer 
up and go to bed in a better mood...<smile>                         -dave



Bird Tags

According to the Knight-Ridder News Service, the inscription on the 
metal bands used by the U.S. Department of the Interior to tag 
migratory birds has been changed. The bands used to bear the address 
of the Washington Biological Survey, abbreviated: Wash.  Biol.  Surv. 
until the agency received the following letter from an Arkansas 
camper:

"Dear Sirs:

While camping last week I shot one of your birds. I think it was a 
crow. I followed the cooking instructions on the leg tag and I want to 
tell you, it was horrible."

The bands are now marked Fish and Wildlife Service.
