You would attempt to shoot yourself in the foot only to find that the gun and your foot are in different contexts so the bullet wouldn't be able to find your foot. Enjoy!! ~~Ammon ;~>

The expression shoot foot evaluates to NONE because you forgot to use one of the /BULLET /ARROW or /CANNON refinements; however shoot/off x returns a STRING! longer than available memory if X is of type EMAIL! or MOUTH! ;-? -jn- Izkata wrote:
