I could feel the mass hysteria coming on right after the first post.
Thanks to Jerry for some semblance of factual information. Have any of
you tried to hold a laser pen steady enough on one spot without the
shakes? I would think between human shakes and animal movement you
couldn't hold a beam on an eye long enough to hurt anything except at
VERY close range. (bird in hand). I doubt if anyone could show me an
eye-damaged bird that has been blinded under normal laser usage. Come on
folks lets get back to evolution and creation. I can feel the wrath
coming on now!! Hans

This thread does not feel 'hysterical' to me, unless you're actually
challenging the group to bring forth a blinded bird. What I don't get is,
why would you even want to risk the chance of blinding a bird?
