> I suggested the current poll question. I expected about at least 50 percent of the people to have enlisted or been drafted. I was *extremely* surprised when I saw 60% had never joined because they didn't want to. I myself plan to join the Marines or Army, and my father was two months away from Vietnam. I was just wondering why some of you people weren't interested. Was it a personal situation or was it you did't want any personal risk?

The same reason we don't want to be interior decorators, the guys who change the winning jackpot prize numbers on the billboards, or beet farmers. None of these professions appeal to us.

I think the real question is why doesn't Gortman64 want to be a fish bait salesman? A personal situation or do you just not like worms?
