Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Vex Discount Coupon Information

Chris, that's exactly the regulation/law I was thinking of (the one that used to consider strong cryptography to be arms-related). What frustrates me is that there's nothing "America-only" about these parts, and they're clearly not designed to be arms. (I could include a fork in a munition; does that mean that we need to restrict the export of forks? No, and I think a similarly reasonable interpretation should be applied here.) In any event, I seriously doubt that Radio Shack could be held liable for the terroristic acts of a Canadian, who just happened to buy a perfectly legal and standards-compliant radio from them.
