I really hope this can work, however the only recent "honor system" I can recall that was tried recently failed.

Although this is a completely different business so I wish them luck and hope they can succeed.

> That being said — and go ahead, call me a cynic — I just don’t buy the honor system as a viable long-term business model.

That's not what cynicism is. Good grief.
