Lines: 21 I seem to have touched off a little firestorm here. I have begun correspondence with a lawyer friend of mine, who happens to deal in import/export. Also with another friend of mine, not a lawyer, whose job brings him into contact with issues related to transshipment of sensitive or potentially sensitive materials. In the meantime, I will continue to be suspicious of requests from "friends" to transship goods. Particularly the ones who make jokes about thickwall steel pipe, 14" i.d., 770" long. I wonder how many spooks read this newsgroup. Back to Ada. -- David Kassover "Proper technique helps protect you against kassover@ra.crd.ge.com sharp weapons and dull judges." kassover@crd.ge.com F.
