I wish we could have heard the Mill Broker's explanation for why they send their gliders home with heat rocks instead of pouches. Probably because they don't sell them. No money in it.

They claim to sell 90-95% of all gliders in America, yet when Aubrey called them a Giant Corporation, he got all defensive. Can't have it both ways, buddy.

I could go on with the various contradictions regarding the "private breeders" that they are in contact with, but it'll just get me riled up.

For an organization that is so LOVED, why are there so many critics? With real questions regarding their practices.

Like Socrates said, "The best and easiest way is not to stop the mouths of others, but to make yourselves as good men as you can."

Don't want to be criticized, then don't do anything worthy of criticism.

They need to be more transparent if they expect to get any respect around here.

I agree with you totally. They are such a disgusting company. I have seen a lot of research about them, I was thinking about doing my own and compiling it for the glider community. My only problem is that while I don't have much to loose, I can't afford lawyers or anything if I get sued for some dumb reason. So I am thinking it over.

In case anyone hasn't seen it, here is the journal entry with the email conversation I had to a Regional Manager of a certain Mill Broker.

The heat rock was an early bulk purchase by that company and I suspect once they offload all 100,000 units onto their clients, they will stop selling them with the public attitude "We listened..." Simple business and politics.
