i understand. my immediate reaction was based on the fact that my wife
is a civilian employee of the department of the army, working at the
Watervliet Arsenal, which means she's involved in the business of making
things go "boom". so i immediately thought about the ranges used in proof
firing big guns at places like Aberdeen in Maryland. so i wasn't thinking
small ranges, i was thinking very large, very dangerous ones.
