Hello pF!** pF> Not many people knew that blank CD-Rs had a kickback to* pF> the recording industry. Every single one. They *assumed** pF> that CD-Rs would be used for pirating music, and so* pF> lobbied the government to include a built-in tariff,* pF> regardless of what you used them for. The manufacturer* pF> pays the government and bakes the charge into the media.**That tarrif was made widely known.*** pF> They probably do the same with bags.**Mums the word wrt bags. So, I doubt it's the same.**I just have to wonder how the gov't can force a retailer to  *charge for the use of a bag.***--- OpenXP 5.0.58* * Origin: Ogg's Dovenet Point (723:320/1.9)* � Synchronet � CAPCITY2 * capcity2.synchro.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/Rlogin/HTTP*
