Why Not

[Pilgrim Sojourner]

I didn't post an image. Perhaps I should have.

[montana_charlie]

Why do you think that, and what exactly was that image you tried to post?

I didn't post an image.

When I used the 'quote' feature to write a reply to you this batch of data was there in your post.

Since it begins and ends with the IMG flags, it is an image of some kind.
(I changed IMG to IM6 so that it will show up in this post.)

If you didn't attempt to post an image, and if you don't know what this is, I just hope my anti-virus software protected me from it when I first opened your post.

Theres the serious issue of ITAR and The wonderful people at the U.S State Department that deem what can and cannot be exported without a license... My advice is go directly too them, and get a list of what can and cannot be posted from the USA... Most people just dont want to deal with the headaches...

[MaryB]

Under ITAR bullets, brass, powder, primers, guns ALL fall under export restrictions...

[44man]

We all love those from down under so welcome.
You all should split from the Queen and vote to become the 51'st state.

[Mytmousemalibu]

Also when it comes to ITAR, it doesn't need to be a tangible item to be considered an export. It can be information. For example: If a foreign national takes a peek over your shoulder at a paper document about a defense article, that is considered an export under ITAR. Seemingly the most add simple of things can be subject to ITAR regs. Just wanted to point that out.

Don't know what the OP ran into but welcome to the forum! We have plenty of foreign members here, hop onboard!

They would have to be the 52nd state. Canada is the 51st...

Many (20+) years ago, I was writing some communication code for a large company that need secure communication between the various processes in the system. Some of the machines were located outside of the US and some inside the US. I wanted to use DES encryption, but the government informed me that I would need to register the software as a *munition* and go through a lot of paperwork in order to export it to our non-US sites. What was really screwy about this was that I had downloaded the DES source code from a university in a foreign country, but I could not legally take it back to that foreign country (either in source code or compiled code format).

Canada is too liberal. Good people under the thumb of free stuff for votes. Down Under has seen the force of liberals and I doubt they would vote liberal.
I knew people up there and when laid off, they got more money then if they worked. WHY work?
Same here now with a snap card to buy steaks a working man can't touch.

Most in the western provinces are quite conservative, until you hit the coast.

It's just a way we like to razz our Canadian neighbors when they start getting a bit too uppity...
