David Downing, responding to Dick Margulis' note that "...there are those
among us who strongly object to the killing of birds with stones--or by any
other means, for that matter. What has any bird ever done to you to justify
your speciesist hubris? What makes you think you can just tromp all over the
planet, willy-nilly, plonking birds just because you got up on the wrong
side of the bed or something? Sheesh!" observed: <<Well, I guess I better be
careful where I aim my rhetoric.>>
It's certainly true that those who live in glass houses shouldn't stow
thrones. So be careful lest you leave no tern unstoned!
