   Seems to me that most of the people we have in gaol fall into similar   
   categories, either by defective hardware or educational deprivation.   
   Which is what bothers me about the "punitive" nature of incarceration:   
   it's worthless to all and impairs our ability to restrict the damage   
   done by idiots.
