No surprise the states after the money they see as rightfully being
owed (I'm sure everyone on this list sends to their state comptroller
the appropriate use tax for their online/catalog orders ...).

As for the fun... well, I wouldn't be surprised to see some counter
initive or nay saying from New Hampshire, a state without a sales tax
and whose motto is "Live free, or die."  I'm sure those business in NH
are just looking forward with great glee to having to be sales tax
agents for 45 states.
