[Dx-qsl] Rec'd: 5A7A (and Self-adhesive air mail envelopes)

Sat Feb 17 21:20:37 EST 2007

I'll second Bill Plum's reply about self stick envelopes drying out. I 
had a box of 500 from Office Depot and by the time I got halfway through 
the box, the top and bottom flaps wouldn't stick for anything. I ended 
up having to tape the flap closed with cellophane tape.
