Steve, you remind me of an experience I had at Fort Knox some forty years
ago.
I took my company to the medics to get "Yellow fever" shots. The soldiers
lined up against the wall with their shirts off, and passed by the medic who
"shot" them with an air driven vaccination gun. One medic actually said to
my troops, "I have to tell you guys everyday to stand next to the wall and
you never listen."

When I was on the curatorial staff at Boot Hill
Museum at Dodge City, Kansas, I always had people
ask why we had removed the hangman's noose from a
tree in Boot Hill Cemetery. I explained that the
noose was dangerous (people were always posing for
pictures with their head in the noose and standing
on tip-toe) and that research did not show that a
hanging tree and noose had ever been in the cemetery.
Visitors and some board members still missed it and
wished we would put it up again.
