A twist on the UP pay us story

What if everyone who runs UP stuff on their layout when they show it to guests sends UP a bill for advertising? If you serve your guests sodas and popcorn while they watch the UP engine (immaculately maintained and always on schedule - not like the prototype) you can then charge UP good will and marketing expenses too! Wouldn't that be cool?!?!? OK, maybe there's not a chance of this doing anything, but it would be kinda fun to do. <br /> <br />Kinda reminds of when California ran out of money and started issuing IOU's to folks that the state owed money to. A bunch of companies and citizens started forming movements to pay their state income tax with IOU's. California then came up with the money. Sometimes making the public aware of how stupid an entity's action is might be all it takes.
