Today I bought a 500 foot ball of paper bundling twine. You know the stuff, sisal "the most economical of all ropes, thousands of uses around the farm & home". My scouting quartermaster used to have it in a big canvas bucket.
We twined together pole stretchers, tripods and lashed tentpoles to trees. Wonderful stuff from the Amalgamated Cordage Corporation in Port Washington New York. (made in Mexico)
100% natural biodegadable.

Whats this fine print?

CAUTION These light cordage products are designed only for uses that could not result in injury.

WOW! What about:
CAUTION These firearm products are designed only for uses that could not result in injury.
?

Works for me!

And all this doesnÕt stop them from getting sued and getting out of the civilian arms business. :(

It sounds good to me :)
 
This is exactly why ladders cost so much these days. They had to make them larger to be able to put all of those warning stickers all over the place! :(
