Here is some info for you folks in other states:

Our Gov. just signed into law that all mail order places must withhold
the 6 1/4% IL state tax. (Starts Jan 1, 90)

How are all the mail-order companies keep up to date what the current
sales tax is in every state.... (Going to HAVE to use a compter now,
and buy updates (LOTS of updates)).

How is IL going to make sure that they get the sales tax......
They don't know who I mail-order from....

I here a couple of groups are going to take it to the supreme court, but
the supreme court upheld IL right to take out of state long distance
(which they have been taking for quite some time).

ONCE again IL is known for the TAX'em till they die state....
