rough handling....

        The FLEX user's group has been putting together a CD full of
documentation, disk images, and what-not. They've even gone so far
as to seek release for the stuff they're putting on the CD. Anyway,
recently a bunch of 'beta' CD's, meant to go out to volenteers to
sort through and catalog prior to burning the final CD, were mailed
out, with the request that the postmaster hand stamp them so as to
minimize damage. So far ever single one of the CD's arrived to it's
destination totally mangled! Some had the layers seperating, some
actually bent, others showed signs of reflective layer actually
flaking off and one had the cancellation stamp from the USPS right on
it!

        Moral: Even with something like CD's, packaging makes all the
difference
