Pc Folks -
    Here's a good one.
Recently I visited Bruce Davidson at Sirius Community near Shutesbury 
Massachusetts.
They have a porcupine problem.

The prickly critters are eating parts of fruit trees & other choice items.  
How can
they get rid of them without hurting them or putting up fences?   They have 
captured
some & taken them miles away, but are unable to capture all of them.

I promised to ask the Pc network, so I hope the porcupines are looking for a 
new abode
already....
