So, the one other thing I would add here is that we can preach to the choir here all we want...we should also be writing letters and emails to the companies.
I get tired of doing that, although I do write letters (not as much as I complain, though). But, if we want change, we have to keep letting them know, and keep letting them know, and keep letting them know. Maybe it won't help that much, but what else can we do? At least writing a letter is an action we can take.
