I'd be a bit more careful of what schools you put down, Peter.

Gee, Kevin Welch would allow a woman to obtain an abortion if there was a
100.000000000% chance that she would die.  I suppose this means he "never waved

And my aunt Ann would be a cripple in a wheelchair a long time before that.

Gee, being in a wheelchair isn't life threatening, is it?  So I guess you
