[TheForge] request for suggestions

[schade at acegroup.cc]

Hi Terry long time no see.

Would a lawyer do that??

Anyway, guessing that a sheet of paper is about 0.004" thick x 30,000 
sheets=1200"=100'.

That's a lot of paper. 100 feet thick! Is my arithmetic right?

Anyway the only 'invisible' ink I know of is lemon juice. At least 
thats what Mr. Wizard said back in about 1955. So get your 100' of 
paper stacked up and spray or swab one edge with lemon juice. Might 
work?

Good luck with your case.

100' of paper is going to be pretty heavy too.
