Well, now ya know, Bob!

'Course, if you don't believe us, check with Medline (NIH's 'consumer 
information' medical information), or NIH themselves, or any 
obstetrician or midwife.

You, too, can be an informed citizen :-)

But now you begin to get a glimmer why many women have trouble taking 
her seriously......

No doubt about it, she's pretty and all that, is a popular new governor 
and all that, and a past mayor of a city in Alaska and all that.  I 
don't have an iota of problem with those items, but if basic 
decision-making abilities are flawed to the point of possibly 
endangering one's family, I'll count myself out.  And I do think it's a 
bit of an unequal contest to hunt from a plane, not to mention it's not 
exactly an 'ordinary person' sort of activity (takes a lot of $$ for 
those hunts), but that's an ethics call, not a judgment one.

That last does take guts, though, a lot more than the hunting itself.  
A lot of the guys up there fly planes that are literally held together 
with baling wire and electrical tape.  I clearly remember my first 
flight in a bush plane---not for the faint of heart.  I got used to it, 
but picked my pilot carefully......that part of living in the far north 
I don't miss.
