The states suing them don't really care about whether they lied or concealed health risks, they just want to push their liberal anti-tobacco agenda.

So these people dropped $1000 or more on a laptop but can't afford a $50 WiFi card?
Granted, the fine ladies of Kappa Delta usually have a keg, but when did they start having their bashes at the local drug store? Is the sorority house being renovated?
How exactly would that work?
I don't think the washing machine in my apartment building dials in when I wash my clothes.
I don't really know dick about smart cards, but common sense would tell you that any card system for laundry would keep track of the monetary value on the card itself.
