Yeah, I figure there are probably gotchas involved. My company is registered |
| 17 |
next door in VA, though, so they probably cut us some slack. I don't know if we |
| 18 |
have a specific business license for MD (though we operate a couple of lockboxes |
| 19 |
in MD). But I figured there was no harm in naming them. Ya never know. |
