Q. Do I have to be married to have safe fax?
A. Although married people fax often, there are many single
people who fax complete strangers every day.

Q. How do I go about faxing a complete stranger?
A. Just ask them if they want to fax. If they do, they will
give you their phone number.

Q. My parents say they never had fax when they were young, and
were only allowed to write memo's to each other until they
were 21. How old do you think someone should be before they
can fax?
A. Faxing can be performed at any age once you learn the
correct procedure.

Q. If I fax something to myself will I go blind?
A. Certainly not. As far as we can see.

Q. There is a place on our street where you can go and pay
to fax. Is this legal?
A. Yes, many people have no other outlet for their fax drives
and must pay a "professional" when their needs become too
great.

Q. Should a cover always be used for faxing?
A. Unless you are really sure of the one you are faxing, a
cover should always be used.

Q. What happens if I do the procedure incorrectly and fax
prematurely?
A. Don't panic. Many people fax prematurely when they haven't
faxed in a long time. Just start over, most people won't mind
if you try again.

Q. I have a personal and a business fax. Can transmissions
become mixed up?
A. Being bi-faxual can be confusing, but so long as you use a
cover with each one you won't transmit anything you're not
supposed to.

Q. Is getting faxed by one person the same as with another?
A. No. Even though many people (especially lawyers) would
like you to believe that the longer they are faxing you the
better you will like it. In reality the best fax is short,
of high quality, and very graphic.

Q. There is a man I'd very much like to fax (I've tried
several times) but he can't seem to keep his equipment
up long enough.
Is there any thing I can do to help him?
A. You could suggest that he contact a good fax therapist, such
as Canon or Mitsubishi. If he refuses to take the suggestion,
it would be best if you just wrote him off.
