What can I say guys: I'm a wimp. Well, I'll be ninety in June, so 
when I go out geocaching, I may be on terrain where I'm asking for a 
fall. Just wouldn't like to have the experience with the M9 that Bob 
Adler's cat subjected him to. Do I wear in on my shoulder when I go 
to a doctor's or dentist's appointment? How about when I'm working as 
a volunteer docent at the Computer History Museum?
Clearly when I'm going out with the intent or a strong possibility of 
taking pix I'll have the M9.
