It is too bad America didn't show even a hint of this type of patriotism before the attacks, but it is impressive to see it now. I agree with the fact that all of these commercials for patriotic CD's, stands at the supermarket with flags, cups, plates, pencils, etc., and other marketing schemes are a little disgusting. But, there is demand for it, right? I know that ads can certainly create a demand, but consumer demand is contributing to the fact that we see new items for sale every week and will until next July 4th and beyond. Also, I am glad that some of these products are readily available for those who want them, but I don't need to hear representatives from different companies telling me how great their company is for starting another relief effort fund. Just do it without flashing your name all over the screen! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
