My limited experience in the Coast Guard and academic training in Anthropology give me a different view.Silver Bullets are great in werewolf movies,but the ballistics are awful in reality. We feel everyone has to act like John Wayne and ridicule the Barney Fifes of the world.Even our closest social relatives, the wolves have both an ALPHA and OMEGA packmember. I've observed that establishing a routine and reassuring people works wonders. You don't have to promise a helicopter by lunch. I once 'rescued' a hysterical young boy in the water. We were both wearing survival suits. I told him I could'nt get us safely ashore due to the heavy surf,but we would be O.K. until the distant Helicopter's standard search pattern brought them to our position. He calmed down instantly,which bettered my demeaner. I had watched the Movie JAWS the prior evening, and a seal kept brushing my legs! <br><br>
