Hats off to John! Some things just don't make sense and we should
stand up and say it. I don't care what the Dept. of The Treasury site
says. Charging  a fee to accept cash is ridiculous. You may have just
used an ATM and paid 3.00 just to get that cash, now some other
jackass tries to dip into your pockets.......I would have blown a
gasket and leaked bright green coolant all over'em. Then, in my
(justified) frenzy, I would have spun, uncontrollably, to and fro (due
to my underrated tires,) knocking insurance bibles from the shelves,
like so many cans of tuna flying out of my Westy cabinets.......
though I would cry out for a recess, so I could consult my Bentley,
that it might deliver me from this predicament. What? There's no
section in the Bentley for this?? I'm gonna blow my other gasket!!!!
