I was really refering to the businessman not being responsible for the 
higher cost of the recycled paper. However, I do admit that I find 
disguising new as recycled so as not to offend and therefore loose 
customers to be dishonest, yet also understandable.  Here goes a phrase 
that will no doubt get me hate mail. If some radical "tree huggers" were 
more realistic and less emotional they might see that in SOME cases it is 
financially and ecocologically cheaper to not recycle. Of course the 
people who make a living recycling wouldn't want us to know this, it might 
hurt their pocket books.
