lacewing larva?

lacewing larva?
Brossard, Quebec, Canada
August 2, 2007
I guess this is a green lace wing larva? It was held up in some spider threads and when I moved it to get a better photo it became quite threatening, waving its pincers at me. It seems like quite an aggressive creature, I think it could give quite a sharp nip.
