I wrote the bit about outrunning a musketball...Yeah well perhaps I was 
jesting. But what might happen if the ball hit a solid object, or thick 
chopped pressed wool (imagine a peacoat on steroids) with a bunch of 
undergarments are two different things. I'm not saying it wouldn't hurt, 
or break a bone or something, but the ball would most likely get stuck 
in the wool. Don't ask me for a test drive k?
