CC thing in the US boggles me. We;ve had them in Canada for

As you said, a no-brainer. Something present in US businesses *is* a
state of no-brain. Case in point, Target and multiple hacks of
retailers since the Target hack was reported.<br>
US businesses see spending a nickle to make a quarter is bad. Better
to spend nothing, hope not to lose the bankroll and make that
quarter before the big loss hits.<br>
