DoC will not allow you to import anything that would cause you to ``violate a Local, State or Federal law'' by importing it. The Local or State law only applies at the point of import. So if widgit XYZ is legal to posses in California but not in New York I simply route shippment such that the point of import in San Francisco. If it is a Federal law, well, then there aren't such loop holes. > Few lawyers study logic & civil servants draft laws, reporting to politicians > for approval.

It was a rewording of the applicable import regulations. Note that regulations are not necessarily law, and are often created by yet another bueracracy(sp). -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation Company Reliable computers for FreeBSD
