Swords into Plough-shares 2006 style.

I read this story today and thought it was a nice twist on turning swords into plough-shares.

In Mexico City the authorities are offering computers in exchange for guns. There are only 150 computers on offer, but it is still a nice idea.

The computers-for-guns program, which echoes past schemes in other city districts that offered groceries for guns, will target some of the district's most crime-hit areas, although collectors' items are also turning up.

I allow people to comment anonymously, many blogs dont. If you want to express an opinion and throw insults my way but are afraid to back up your statements with an ID at least back up your opinions and insults with a logical argument.

Unfortunately due to spammers and people posting libel comments I've turned on moderation and just deleted the spam comments.
