This was on one of my other lists... a guy had bad mouthed a company and
here was one of the Many replies... all in favor of the guys company...
I am not going to forward the negatives that went with this.... But I really
liked the ladies reply and thought I would share with you why I feel it's so
important to be positive here on our list....
I personally like the way we handle our list....almost always upbeat.... and
not very negative.... sure makes me want to open my Mail...
