- I am constantly amazed how people will read anything they want into
- a sentence just so they can flame (MLMs or whatever).
-
- Where in Mr. Slusk's posting did he say he needs "ALL consumables"?
- For that matter where did he say ANYthing about his personal need for
- consumables? He said, "The [Amway] plan is based on consumables."
-
- He implied that basing a company's business on consumables was in general
- a good idea, since there is always a need for consumables. I think you
- would be hard pressed to find many sensible businessmen who would debate this.
-
- Look, folks, there are plenty of good points we can debate on the net.
- Let's not stoop to ad hominem and strawmen to fuel our flames, OK?
