Hey, I wasn't frowning as I wrote that... :-) :-) :-) I was just
commenting, realistically, on how businesses are harming consumers in
the U.S. (and elsewhere) with the help of the politicians that they
buy, as well as their negative impact on the educational system that
they're buying as well, from grade-schools to universities. I'm all
for healthy profits, but not at the expense of harming, and, or,
cheating, people in order to achieve them. Is not what we need a
biz-'droid-rattling consumer revolt? ...taking place in the workplace
as well. After all, employees are consumers too. If they fire
everyone, well, they're going to have a rather big problem making any
profits at all. :-)
Ok, back to "on topic." :-) With regards to preserving old
documentation, I've discovered that the chrome plating used on many of
the looseleaf binders from DEC, etc., don't hold up well in some
environments where there's a lot of humdity; the chrome flakes off
and the metal rusts, so, for any of those here who've recently begun
collecting them, you might want to keep them in a dry part of your
house.
