--- Quote ---"In 1988 the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) banned lawn darts," said CPSC Chairman Ann Brown. "That people would now blatantly disregard that ban is outrageous, and an insult to our authority."GREAT GOOGLY-MOOGLY!!!  Americans have the audacity to insult the AU-THOR-ITY of the CPSC!  The Horror!  The Horror!

Ms. Brown needs to get a frelling life.
