Hi Mike,

All of the previous posts are good advice. I really don't have
anything to add except for the scan below....a month or so ago,
Steve Blust sent me a couple of NCV chips. The scan shows the
mangled evelope (original envelope was torn in half and part
of it was even missing!) from Steve. The "Dear Postal Customer"
letter to the left was printed on a clear plastic bag that was
used to re-package the items. Everything he sent was in the
plastic bag! But I wonder if I would have received it if the
chips had not been NCVs......
The funny part is...Steve and I live...what did we say Steve?...
less than a mile from each other??? I thought it was funny that
it got so mangled when it only had to go a couple of blocks!!

Just thought you all might get a kick out seeing that....why I
still have that...I don't know! But I knew it would come in
handy one day...... <G>
