This is good.  One never knows when he might encounter a fish with a
firearm; a lobster with a Luger; a Marlin with a Mauser;
a Carp with a Colt; a Gar with a gat; a Barricuda with a Beretta; a Perch
with a pistol; a Shark with a Shotgun; a Tuna with a Tokarev; an Akule with
an AK; an Ulua with an Uzi;  a Ray with a Ruger; a Wrasse with a Winchester;
a dolphin with a Derringer; or a turtle with a Thompson.  Here at Vulcania,
all aquatic animals are required to register their firearms; we've installed
metal detectors at the access points to all coves and lagoons; and there is
legislation being presented in the next session requiring a license to
purchase ammunition.  Nevertheless, with the increasing number of guns
turning up in schools (of fish), one can't be too careful.  Thus, the idea
of bullet-proof submarine windows is appealing to us.  Please keep up the
good work, Mr. Suds!
