Then someone decided to make cheap eel-skin billfolds. They used a different species. One which erases the magnetic strips.

Is this a troll?

Nope, for the life of me, I couldn't figure what was going on. Then it was covered on one of those pseudo-news shows. The non-erasing wallets used to be very expensive. These are the real cheapos. If my failing memory recalls correctly, the eels are from the Philippines. Strange but true. :-)
