LOL! I've always felt there is a special place n Hell reserved for the
designer of that packaging, right next to the individuals who invented
the "easy to remove" stitching on the top of charcoal bags (am I the
only one that is able to put the right string only about 10% of the
time?) and the inventer of old band aid packaging with the string that
occasionally let you rip open the side if the package, but usually
just pulled out of the sleeve.


You obviously didn't spend any time as a kid on the farm opening
burlap bags full of feed.

You learn how to pull the right string to open the bag before the end
of the first day.

Trust me.


Oh, I don't doubt you for a minute. It's when you do it once every 6
weeks that it gets to be a challengeg. And you are right; I didn't.
