Crow,

I hope this is OK to post. I thought everyone should read it. I'm not sure

how true it is but it seems to have merit.

HELLO, PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO MIGHT USE THIS PRODUCT!

Ellie,

I don't know if there is any truth to this but thought I would pass this on

to you. Maybe you have heard about this already.
