From: Jim Thompson on 25 Apr 2010 13:42 This wet (and cold) winter, due to global warming ;-) has left us here in AZ over-run with gnats as the weather warms up. They're even getting into the house. Any convenient solutions? ...Jim Thompson -- | James E.Thompson, CTO | mens | | Analog Innovations, Inc. | et | | Analog/Mixed-Signal ASIC's and Discrete Systems | manus | | Phoenix, Arizona 85048 Skype: Contacts Only | | | Voice:(480)460-2350 Fax: Available upon request | Brass Rat | | E-mail Icon at http://www.analog-innovations.com | 1962 | I love to cook with wine.

Call your local police force, and complain that the gnats are illegal immigrants. When they get there, demand to see birth certificates (be sure to have yours handy). -- Tim Wescott Control system and signal processing consulting www.wescottdesign.com

If a swarm forms indoors, suck them up with a dust buster vacuum cleaner - squirt some fly spray into the nozzle before switching off, otherwise they'll just fly back out again.

Now! Now! Be nice! The law simply says that in addition to the normal "show your driver's license" during a traffic stop or similar, UPON SUSPICION, because you can't produce ID, the officer can ask if you're a legal immigrant. Personally I think, instead of jail time, we need to institute "rock-pile" service... a year on the rock pile, particularly if administered by Arpaio should stop this nonsense. ...Jim Thompson -- | James E.Thompson, CTO | mens | | Analog Innovations, Inc. | et | | Analog/Mixed-Signal ASIC's and Discrete Systems | manus | | Phoenix, Arizona 85048 Skype: Contacts Only | | | Voice:(480)460-2350 Fax: Available upon request | Brass Rat | | E-mail Icon at http://www.analog-innovations.com | 1962 | The only thing bipartisan in this country is hypocrisy |
