Ah-yup III. Over at Keep and Bear Arms, a guy posting as madashell(I think) says to listen to http://stevequayle.com/qf_december_01_2008.mp3. I did. It kind of rambles, after the 4min. song about the alphabet agencies already being briefed to confiscate guns and lock up resistors, but doesn't refer to exact times,dates, who what when where.

You are bound for the hive.
You'd better keep that fact straight."
