I've heard that the rag piles don't seem to be getting much smaller from day to day.  Leaves me to conclude that the rags aren't exactly flying off the shelves. 

Is there some type of dust resistant newsprint to print the rags on?  Probably a good idea for the Ragman to consider.

Also, has the Ragman considered just driving the Rags directly from the printer to the recycling center?  He'd probably make a higher profit on the recycled newsprint than he would on retail rag sales.
