Thanks to those who said they would join the boycott with me: Zeke Moshe cc Clogwog amicus_curious RayLopez Hopefully Hadron and Tim Smith can join in, but I understand if they don't. The cola nutjobs have labeled us "trolls" and out of place and off-topic for years. Now their pretend advocacy group will melt down from sheer boredom. See you gentlemen again mid-December.
