Damn, no one reads.
_Listen up, people_.
NSI was charging $35, _plus the $15 the government told them to, by
contract_. Someone bitched, the government, _who were GETTING that
$15_, changed the instructions. NSI stopped charging the extra $15.
NSI don't owe anyone shit...
although, of course, that _is_ what we get from them. :-)
