…well, it COULD have.  I didn’t realize how much velcro was on my laptop bag until I sat down to unpack at Chelsea’s new McKune Memorial Library.  Crrruuunch.  RRrrriiiipp.  I had to make the decision to rip fast, rather than pulling it off slowly. The slow approach would have prolonged the deafening sound - due to a strip that is about 12 inches long on the front flap.  I  had enough mind to leave the velcro UN-done, so as to not go through the ordeal when I went to pack up again.
