Heheh.

I have a friend who frequently used to say that if a question began
with "Would it be wrong to ..." then the answer was always "No."

I think it was about the point where I asked, "Would it be wrong to
release freshwater crocodiles just a little upstream of [local picnic
area where children feed ducks and geese] just in time for the summer
holidays?" that he gave up.
