Now I know what to say to Ovation flamers:

You're just another rabid bat, arent you?

Not his lucky day, but surely a unique day. In the Pacific Northwest, at least in Washington, Bats are the ONLY known reservoir of rabies. And it's estimated that no more than 1% of bats in nature are infected with rabies. Definitely not his day.

OMA is routinely attacked by bats (but it's usually just people swinging them...)

Should have been easier to club it with his Ovation than it was to kill it with a BB gun.

So, Miles, where did you learn that interesting fact about bats? A tourist brochure? "Visit the Pacific Northwest, where only 1% of the bats are rabid!"
Seriously, 1% of all bats being rabid seems pretty high, especially if you run into a big swarm of them.

And they have the new 50 watt CubeStreet EX with them.
So, if you go out in the woods and make a bunch of noise...
You annoy the bats.
