Honest-to-God, this is taken from the front page of this morning's 
Richmond Times-Dispatch (Metro section).  It seems that last night 
(9/23/98) Virginia executed yet another prisoner, and for the first time 
in four years, the electric chair was used (at the request of the 
prisoner).  One of the media witnesses, a Terry Scanlon of the Lynchburg 
News & Observer, talking about the prisoner in his last moments, is 
quoted as saying that the condemned "...didn't show any resistance."
