I heard a piece on UNC NPR re: triangulating
technology that tells police
what has been shot (firecrackers, guns, assault weapons) and where - to

Raleigh get similar technology even without the Fed. grants?
It's sometimes a horrible world that we live in but it's what we've got
and we need to be able to cope as best as can be. If we're informed, we

Anyone else hear two shots
just now?
