Except on the Internet, where it’s pretty much wholesale with free samplers available upon request. Or when not requested. One of the many services offered by and for humanity.

There is a measure of sorrow in my heart as I look at the world in which I live. So many things I don’t understand; so many things I wish to change but can’t.
