Well, to even things out, a hunter in this area was shot and killed by his
15 year old nephew, who 'mistook his uncle for a deer.'  Gee officer I am sorry
I was driving under the influence of alcohol, but 'I mistook my car for a taxi.'
Incidently, the uncle that was shot was wearing a fluorescent vest!  I have
to question the mentality of the people running wild through the forest with
powerful rifles, and shooting at the first thing they *hear*.  But, that is
another story.
