       Nah, too easy on him.  I favor the view that he be sold to a zoo.

	I did not say he had to die _mercifully_, did I? (perhaps a
panda-skin rug'll liven up the house) 

	One other thing, the original deal was that Ranma wed _a_ Tendo
sibling.  There are two perfectly fertile and unattached young women still
in the Dojo for Nodoka to draft....

   Can you see anyone drafting Nabiki?  And Kasumi is impervious to all
external forces.  Not even Happosai glomps her.  I don't think he glomps
Nabiki either, but that's because he doesn't have a death wish. 

	If Nodoka is obsessive enough to demand that _Ranma_ die for
Akane's apparent unfaithfulness, I can easily see her trying to force
Kasumi or Nabiki into marriage.
	Not that it'd _work_ mind you (esp. in Nabiki's case), but she
would try....
