Here is a copy of a letter by a rep of a county chamber of commerce I
thought was interesting. I wonder how much of the congress critters
response is for show? I know as of Feb 10 I will no longer sell toys the
ones I have in stock are being sold as collectors items and not for
children. Notice to that effect is already on my website.

Our Chamber of Commerce is planning a craft fair this spring. How will
this affect us? Are we expected to police our vendors? What is our
liability in this respect?

Quilters tell us that baby quilts sell best. I assume they will be
forbidden, but do not know. What about regular quilts?

Due to this legislation, we will very likely cancel the event. As a
taxpayer, I can hardly wait to pay for the incarceration of the vast number
of grandmothers and others for violating this act. What plans do you have
for informing them and the independent toymakers, woodworkers who may make a
few toys, knitters, and others? I live in a rural area where access to
information is greatly impaired.

A local quilters' group makes quilts and donates them for fundraising.
Who will be responsible for compliance, the quilters or the recipients?

Thank you.
