Re: Sales Tax

["Paul Winchester" <bravo454@hotmail.com>]

Kate,
How about something along the lines of cultured food, like worms and eels? 
Sponge filters is another Idea I had (hmm, that be be a lfs type item)

With the exposure available thru the internet these days it opens up many 
possibilities.

Collection of sales tax seems to be unclear, seems if the company has a 
store front in the state they are required to collect tax. I think it wont 
be too long before all internet sales are taxed. Recently I was charged 
sales tax on a printer I bought from Buy.com in California.

Hang in there and you will come up with some viable income source.

Paul
