OK, I understand this, but the previously-expressed comments about  
unintentional/undesirable consequences and not addressing the actual  
cause of the problem (inadequate and/or inefficient credit card  
processing and inefficient business processes), as well as the  
comments regarding practicalities and so forth, haven't really been  
addressed (pardon the pun), IMHO.
