I'm convinced that a present-day rationing system wouldn't be able to handle such a thing. Or, if it could, it would be a lot more complicated than that 'check'.Dr. Bubbleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00048643300094667983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089197969206589217.post-81609364442081357462012-02-17T04:39:18.698-08:002012-02-17T04:39:18.698-08:00Oh wow!
