[GNC] Is this a wacky idea?

[Simon Roberts]

Wow, does the state pay for your CPAs time doing that rekeying? That's a
major reason I'm looking at this. I want them to have instant access, easy

call "hostageware" -- you all know, I'm sure, to which organizations I'm
referring :)

Fortunately, Colorado has no such evil requirements!
