A couple of years ago, when I worked at a large company, our "sexual
harassment training" included a company letter that stated "Don't treat a
female engineer like a secretary." Needless to say, the secretaries were

Last September, in rural Vermont, the car in which Michael O'Keefe was
riding was hit by a 700-pound moose. O'Keefe was taken for treatment of
cuts and returned to road a few hours later in his own truck, which was
then hit by another moose.
Last February, in Warsaw, Poland, highway robbers forced off the road a
car in which the coaches of the Russian and Belorussian biathlon (shooting
and skiing) teams were riding. Following right behind, however, was the
teams' bus, and as all of the athletes grabbed rifles, the would be
robbers became fled (rather quickly).
