Thank you for being so patient with me. To my knowledge an emergency
or declaration of war has never been issued.

OK thank you! This is the info I wanted! You did well fo me.

Very satisfied, atleast now I am armed with cases to bring to my
lawyer's attention. Thank you.

I'd give you 5 stars for all the information about the game, but I
asked mainly about the cap launching trick.  You did answer; it's just
I was hoping for a step-by-step closeup pictorial by a seasoned
launcher of bottlecaps the show-offy way (as you rightfully put it).

Once I read your wording about dropping the arm I got a memory dump
from my brain, which suffers from Alzheimer's or something...memories
get fogged and mixed up pretty badly.  First, my dad is alive, my wife
corrected me on that.  Second, it was my brother who fired caps at me.
 Third, it wasn't for playing scully or any other game (no idea how I
knew about the game).

Fourth: I got a clear memory of him firing one across a street at a
dog.  He didn't just drop his forearm; he whipped his arm from elbow
to fingers, like whippersnapping a towel, and snapped his fingers at
the end of the whipping action.  The effect was impressive, but it'll
take a lot of practice (and ice for the elbow!)  Anyway, I tried your
steps and got much better results.  Then I tried snapping my arm and
got a clumsy but powerful result, and nearly threw my shoulder out. 
Guess I'm satisfied!  If not for your answer I'd never have recalled
that...

Many thanks with a small tip.  ...btw, Tad is cute :-)

Very helpful and researcher found a great source. I would have
preferred a bit more detail on the research process (the name of
person spoken to; the time and duration of call) as well as a bit more
on variability or lack thereof of the slope throughout the extent in
question. Also great comments.

Great answer - thanks a bunch!

This is a very well-organized and high-quality response, but not too
overwhelming either in terms of information. The sites are very easy
to use and great for kids! I just couldn't find them -- how much time
did it take you to find these? My son will enjoy this a lot --  here
is a your tip, as promised for a great answer.

Thank you tutuzdad! There are a lot of books in the lists you have
directed me, so hopefully I will find something my son would be
interested in reading. It looks like you put a lot of effort into this
search, how long did it take to find all these lists?--again, thank
you very much :)

Thanks a lot, I needed that....

I sure expected more.

Thanks, this answer did not solve all my problems, but frankly it's as
good as I would expect anyone to be able for the money I offered.  It
was thorough, polite, and professional.  Thanks.

Thanks for the time.  Great answer!

Very clear and appropriate, thank you

Thank You - your answer was exactly the sort of stuff I was looking for.
I suppose it goes without saying that police shows take a LOT of
liberty with how things really happen in the world of law enforcement,
but I still had to hear some clear information on exactly how off-base
the "gunfight" aspect is.
I was only twelve when Miami Vice premiered and right away I sensed
that Crockett and Tubbs' propensity for once-a-week gunfights would
raise eyebrows at the very lest, and lead to suspension/firing at
worst.

Thanks again for your patient, detailed answer!

Would want to know about interstate calls; which state's law prevails
when two parties to a conversation are from states whose laws
conflict?

Excellent research and report.  I was very impressed that a study was
included that was precisely on the subject of my question. 
tutuzdad-ga is great and I look forward to working with him/her again.

Worst answer I've ever recieved.  Unfortunately, it was perfect,
accurate, and even faster than I drive.  Thanks Tutuzdad for your
well-researched and timely response.

Thank you for your time! I greatly appreciate the excellent and
supported by legal sites answer.

Great answer and speedy results.

Excellent!

That's a great answer! I was born in 1953 in Scotland and I just about
remember Arthur Askey on T.V. but didn't link my mother's comment to
his name. Thank you!
