Yeah, I encountered a store cler and a manager in 1970s who declared
my traveler's checks were personal checks. And since I didn't have a
bank account in that town, they were going to cash them, I was making
a purchase.

The relative who was with me pointed out that once signed they are
like money and acceptible everywhere. The manager said they were
helping me trying to cause him trouble. One of the other cashiers
pointed out my relative shopped there all the time. I left the
merchandise on the counter and we left. It was about $5 worth, and I
had used a $20 Traveler's Check. We went to the bank, they accepted it
just fine.

The store is gone now and I'm not surprised.

I meant to type they weren't going to cash them. I forget the company
but it was widely known for issuing traveler's checks.

He should have got cash sent. That was always possible.

None of ours ever did. And they mostly have considerable
piles of cash and when the shit hit the fan in 2007/8, quite
a few ended up with a considerable problem with those
piles of cash because they had been invested in AAA rated
bonds that didn’t come even close to qualifying for those
AAA ratings and they are still trying to get most of that money
back by suing the operations that sold them those bonds.

Bonds don’t work like that here and towns don’t issue
bonds here. They aren't even legally allowed to.

I think the law is that the original seller of the machine is responsible, 
no matter how many secret intermediaries are involved.  It is the same thing 
for restricted machine tools, actual munitions, and all sorts of other 
things.  If the item is on the restricted list, and it ends up getting 
diverted to somewhere else, the seller is on the hook, and the only way out 
is to prove it was stolen from what was otherwise a legitimate sale.
So, guilty until proven innocent, kind of hard to do.

Some other companies got in big trouble selling multi-axis machine tools 
that ended up in China.

It's not absolute, but it's not good faith either; I forget the exact
legal term, but IIRC it amounts to "known or should have known".

For instance, if you sell supercomputers to a university for legitimate
research, e.g. geological or climate modeling, but several years later
they transfer them to a new department that does nuclear bomb design,
you probably wouldn't be on the hook for that--unless you had a reason
to suspect they'd do so.

OTOH, if you sold the same supercomputers to some shady shell
corporation, and they turned up in a bomb research program the next
month, you're definitely going to be in serious trouble.

The BXA helpfully maintains whitelists and blacklists, so the common
concern is selling to someone on neither.  The govt does review such
buyers, especially ones buying combinations of products that indicate
likely prohibited uses of what may have looked innocent in isolation,
and puts them on either the whitelist or blacklist so future sellers
don't have to guess.

Still, most enforcement is against companies who either don't have the
required export licenses (often because they don't even realize their
products qualify as "munitions" in the first place) or individuals who
deliberately evade their company's controls to make a big sale.

Oh, I see.  That must mean that the European sales people were careless
or something.  But if you sell gear to Company A which is a legitamate
business which repackages the gear into a product.  Then Company A sells
the product to Shell A or another company which then sells to Shell A,
how can the original company control that (assuming it's the first
sale of that kind.)  Sound like CIA and other countries' spies
need to be invovled ...and I suppose State departments.

McDonnell-Douglas got in BIG trouble when they sold a 5-axis machining 
center to China.  That was on the controlled equipment list, and they ended 
up paying a multi-million $ fine.

<http://www.nytimes.com/1999/10/20/us/us-indicts-mcdonnell-douglas-and-

There was another incident where another 5-axis machine ended up in Russia, 
and was used to make quiet submarine propellers.

I remembered something about Toshiba and Soviet submarine propellers...

It doesn't help much to restrict the sale of munitions if you don't also
restrict the tools/parts used to make those munitions.

Of course, such tools can often be used to make non-munitions as well,
so they're usually classified as "dual use", and figuring out when you
can or can't sell them is where most of the complication lies in practice.

Companies often create limited "export" versions of products that don't
qualify as "dual use" to avoid dealing with that hassle, e.g. GPS chips
that fail at high speed so they won't work for missiles, but in some
cases, e.g. multi-axis machine tools, it's simply unavoidable.

OK, I'm not getting my question answered.  I think I need to learn about

Automation of manufacturing. Also a blacksmith would have had to take 
the item out of the vice and turn it over. Multi-axis machines can do 
the rotation them selves or have several cutting heads.

Ok.  So the "axis" in this gear is imaginary rather than a solid
connection between the machine and the lump which is going to become
a part.  heh...now I want to be a tourist in a company which
designs and manufactures these tools.

There were plenty of those at that time. Not something

Nothing imaginary about it, it’s a very fundamental
part of what the machine is capable of, what axes
the tools and the work can be moved in.

They don’t generally allow tourists.
They do have trade shows tho.

Here's an example of a 5-axis CNC tool making the impeller for a 
motorbike supercharger, hopefully it gives an impression of the 
operations not available with fewer axes?

     Pretty, but no, it does not.

     I -- and maybe others -- do not know enough to evaluate.  What
