in response to Speaker_to_Animals:  (This comment was removed by
the site staff.)  "Fireworks are no more a waste of money than
planting petunias, watching TV, painting a mural, or any other
'useless' activity. It is all in the eye of the beholder."  The
difference between fireworks and these activities is that, last
time I checked, none of those hobbies threaten the life, limbs
and homes of those around you. When is the last time planting a
flower or watching tv set your neighbors house on fire? When is
the last time painting a mural resulted in second degree burns?
Just because I think all personal fireworks should be illegal
doesn't make me part of the "sniveling anti-fun crowd" makes me
a person who would prefer to enjoy a large professional
fireworks show without wondering if back at home, my neighbors
carelessness has set my roof on fire.
