Leigh,

I can't remember who sai, but someone told me a long time ago, that when all else is gone, all a man has left IS his Honor!
You take away his Honor.....well.....in that case you have just made a very, deadly enemy!, with nothing to lose!
It's something I never forget when I am dealing with people.....for their sake....and mine!

PS....there are two people in a REAL knife fight....the one who goes straight to the Morgue, and the one who heads straight to the Emergency Room.....the Morgue possibly later anyway!
