Hi Don and List,

Aaaah, that explains it. I read the auction title and it says 1mg.
He might want to correct that error, or some casual bidders might be
turned away.

In the auction description it does say ".01 grams" - but for the
mathematically challenged, that still might be confused with 1mg,
especially since the title says that.

Best regards,

MikeG
