I'll second that opinion. It wouldn't be so bad, except when I walk into Staples et all, looking for A4 size paper, they have absolutely no clue that the US seems to be the only user of the 8.5x11 format. And they cannot grok what difference it makes at all. Very very frustrating. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
