Interesting to note, that the effect of the ad you mention, was strong
enough to make you think quite a lot about it! This too is
manipulation.



yes, I've been aware that they "got me" at that level G

but I'm a grumpy old ass and, although I'm not saying I won't buy Scott, I
AM saying that the Carl's Jr "stick in your mind by being gross" ads HAVE
cost them my business They used to be my fast food chain of choice,
based
on product ... but I haven't stopped at one in several years in invisible
protest against bringing yet more digusting material into my home via the
boobtube

thanks for the reply Mike and thanks for the heads up on the rod handle
deal
... I've finished all 7 rods I intend to modify ...



I must admit that I also avoid businesses and products that try to "hard
sell" or "bull****", whether it be with advertisements or attitudes.

This was actually always my main bone of contention with Gehrke.

Be sure to let us know how you get on with the rods.
