      So what is that difference?  (I hope you won't think I'm trying to
retroactively change the question if I specify here hunting where the
hunter plans on eating the meat obtained.  I certainly don't feel like
defending psychotics who just enjoy blowing things away.)  If there's a
definite moral difference, Ed, I'm sure you wouldn't mind letting me
know what it is?
