No yardsticks allowed. Napoleon was serious about the metric system. Something that is marked in metric units in order to defraud would be covered by normal &quot;you can't import anything illegal&quot; rules. You notice, for instance, that no mention of illegal drugs is made. These lists just include otherwise legal things (or things that could reasonably be expected to be legal, like yardsticks)that you can't send in.</p>tag:sursumcorda.salemsattic.com,2018:/isso/144/4922007-06-16T11:22:17Zsursumcorda<p>Actually, I hadn't thought of that. That makes sense. I was thinking they didn't want anything marked in inches or pounds.</p>tag:sursumcorda.salemsattic.com,2018:/isso/144/4912007-06-16T07:31:49ZIrishOboe<p>I suppose you've thought of this, but it makes sense they don't want someone with false scales fleecing their people. Why the baby bottles and sweeteners, I don't know.</p>
