Yupo fresh from the package sort of has the whiteness of cardstock and the
feel of laminated paper. It's hard to describe, but you may have seen and
handled it and not realized it. If you've eaten in a chili's, applebee's or
one of those types of restuarants you commonly find their menu's printed on
it. Ammusingly, I remember feeling one of these menus once and wondering
what the stuff was exaclty. I nearly burst out laughing when I received a
package of the yupo and there it was.

I'm trying to visualize it... of course I'm prejudiced in favor of a
nice rag artists' paper, but trying to keep an open mind -- Is it anything
like what I think is called Tyvek (?) that the US post office uses for
priority mail & businesses use for large envelopes? It certainly is
indestructible... tho to me unlovely. But maybe that's something else
entirely ? (If I were Mark I'd have something to say about yuppo-ies,
good thing I'm not.)
meanwhile, thanks for the info...
