From: www.indefinitearticles.co.uk Two more held in Paper Arrests, New York, 16th August 2030 Two men are in custody in New York today for allegedly using paper to send a printed sales letter to their customers. Police were alerted by several companies who had received the two-page flyer in contravention of paper usage laws ratified by the US senate in January 2028 prohibiting the use of paper for all commercial communications. Readers will remember this was in response to the need for forest conservation. The letters, copies of which have been seen by this publication, seem genuine and, amazingly, compound the error by using coloured ink, itself outlawed in related after concerns about pollution. Detective Maloney, 17th Precinct, said, "We are investigating many aspects of this disturbing case, including the use of printers to produce the letters. Everybody knows that only specimen printing devices are now retained in museums for educational reasons and other use is strictly prohibited. Probable fines will include the cost of replacement trees, energy and other consumables, plus the usual $100,000 "Green" fine for contravening environmental legislation. These guys use shock advertising tactics to get customers' attention and hope to get away with it. As you know, this is top of our priorities and Mayor Ramirez is being kept informed." The letters are not in the category of recent industrial sabotage cases where Company A sends out printed flyers advertising Company B's products to ensnare Company B in the relevant legislation. The investigation is ongoing. From: www.indefinitearticles.co.uk
