Hi all,

Hmmm...just noted tonight that these common thin
magnets seem to have a property I've not noted 
before.  On one side, they stick magnetically OK.
On the other side, it's almost like their wasn't
almost even a magnet there.  Have 3 such critters
on the refrig steel side, 2 have very little
attraction on the paper side, and 1 seems like
its field has been cut down 2/3rds.  Even on a 
flat steel surface, the difference is notable.

Anyone know what kind of property these magnets
have to act the way they do?

OR;

Perhaps the manufacturers only magnetize on one
side to a very shallow depth into the magnet?
