I have a greater concern, a kid at my son's school has a nut allergy, which can be fatal to some (anaphylactic reaction), and being showered in nuts would be more than enough to trigger it. Regards 73 Alan G0HiQ

They are a HUGE NUISANCE to get rid of, they fly all over the place when you try to unpack them. I have gotten so angry when people ship peanuts to me that I've re-packed them in a box and shipped them back, at my expense. Bubble wrap is far more manageable, and can be loosely crumpled to provide good cushioning within the package. Even crumpled newsprint is a lot better -- at least we can burn it as kindling or put it in the recycling bin :) 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
