Little Jeremiah, see post 56. If I do say so myself, don't be drinking anything when you do.

There ya go, -- they still use public caning in the middle east.

I think Robert Heinlein made an excellent case for the return of corporal punishment, and I think you know he was no Bible thumper or repressive Islamist. It can even be argued that it's more humane in the long run and would reduce recidivism significantly, especially for juveniles. After all, what do we do with Juvie kids now? Put them in a cage where they learn to be better criminals.
