The Wiz On The Street

Retailing giant Target has been fined $120,000 for selling illegally-imported silly string that contained hydrochlorofluorocarbons, the propellant that was banned for damaging the ozone. So the Wizard hit the streets again, asking, "What do you think?"

Ali Goffrier,

"Sure the gases eat holes in the ozone layer, but a well-aimed blanket of silly string will patch it right up."

Sarah Nichols,
Exporter
"Well, this is the simple reality of the situation until America can come up with sustainable, environmentally sound alternatives to foreign novelties."

Harmony Klaus,
Systems Analyst
"$120,000! Where is Target supposed to come up with that kind of money?"
