[kj] OT - naughty Gibson

[Brendan Quinn]

Yeah I remember reading about this a while ago, in the context that it was a
crock of shite and just a bunch of beaurocrats trying to justify their
existence.

This has fuck all to do with saving rainforests and everything to do with
archaic regulations and overzealous feds. If the fretboards had been
finished in India, there would be no issue. Gibson imported the raw wood to
be finished in the US, which apparently now violates Indian law, according
to the assessment of some bureaucrat, despite the fact that Gubson had been
importing this way for years. 
 
More nonsense like this and we'll turn into the UK. I can hardly wait to
leave my council flat to take public transportation to my civil service
job...
