The goal in       China is to get the stuff out of the door ASAP and they really care if it       makes much sense.              I once found a CFL that had no name of/for the manufacturer on either the       packaging or bulb. It wasn't just an off brand. It had no brand at all, just       "Compact Fluorescent Light" on the package.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
