MICROWAVED MONEY BECOMING A TREND

  On the heels of last week's item comes another tale of money
  in a microwave - perhaps there is a real trend happening
  out there.  An article in the March 11, 2004 issue of the
  Pittsburgh Post-Gazette begins:

  "These kinds of counterfeiters aren't likely to keep U.S.
  Secret Service investigators up late.

  First, one of them accidentally torched $400 worth of fake
  $20 bills in his microwave oven trying to improve their
  texture.

  Then, when he and his buddy tried to pay for food at a
  restaurant drive-through at The Waterfront with two fake
  $20s, the cashier became suspicious and called police.
