Shasta542:
Love your signature picture, Kerry!

serious crayons:
Post consumer is a particular kind of recycled material -- I believe it's the stuff we actually put in the recycle bins. I'm not sure exactly what "pre-consumer" recycled material would be, but I suppose it's some kind of byproduct of manufacturing.

"Fiber sleeve" is a new one for me, though.
