[TheForge] Meteoric iron - wrap it in foil

[Darrell]

Steve,
I just used an extreme to carry out the view that making a profit is the
only criteria for making a sale.
One of the items that I sell is a computer control for a milling machine. I
have refused to sell that control package to any of the mid-east companies
because terrorist parts could be made with that machine and I have no way of
knowing who would and who wouldn't.
