In general HazMat exemptions happen where "circumstances" are such that they reduce the risk of harm. In this particular case, those "circumstances" would likely be "tested, certified & packed at the factory in specific emballage approved as part of the exemption." Ie: HP had an exemption to ship to customers, but not the other way. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 [email protected] | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to http://lists.febo.com/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts_lists.febo.com and follow the instructions there.
