Computer Weekly & OXO

[BrowneIssue]

This here Computer Weekly (or ComputerWeekly.com as it says on the cover) as wot I have just been sent, is in a plastic bag, as per usual.

The plastic bag is marked: "This polythene is OXO-degradable"

Does this mean:

a) I have to put it into OXO to degrade it?

b) It is a warning that it will degrade OXO?

c) They are merely degrading themselves with silly marketing messages?

d) I should send it to Computing so they can ridicule it in BackBytes?

Discuss.

I think this refers to BS EN 13432:2000

Aren't you familiar with this?

Somehow your answer, whilst very helpful and informative, is not quite what I was expecting from the target audience.

On going back and re-reading that document slowly, it was a lot more interesting and informative than it first appeared.

I've half a mind (yeah, yeah, ha, ha) to write to Reed Publishing and to suggest they try a little harder.

Thank you for the link.
