>"Write it on a brown piece of paper and shove it up you're ass." That's what
I was told by the OWNER of M & G Vintage Auto, when I called to talk to him
< before going any farther with it. So far, the suggestions have been:
I'm sure that what you're encountering here is a cultural difference.
Where he comes from, this must be a term of respect and honor. Obviously
important documents must be preserved in the only location not
searched by the screws. Or else, he is trying to share with you a practice
that he has found pleasurable and satisfying. Perhaps he was even hoping
that you would be of a mind to comply so that he could retrieve it
himself. However, to give him the benefit of the doubt, I think you
should comply with his request and then send it to him. I wouldn't
include a return address, though. The postal service may have some
regulations about this practice, and they may not be culturally sensitive.
I would certainly wash any parts or correspondence you recieve from
M & G in the future.
