200 Warned

We just surpassed 200 visitors to this site, today, on the 5th day since it's conception. I've been hearing about people posting links to this site all over the internet, and I couldn't be happier. To me, this is all just a testament to the power of word of mouth, and people banding together for a common cause. I know I depend heavily on recommendations from others on the web before I buy online, and now is my chance to give back to the same well of information that I draw from.

But it's more than that. I believe that there are those in this world who prey on others, and the only reason they can do so is the fact that many people don't speak up about it. Whether it's because they don't know how, or because their afraid of repercussions, or simply because it's too much trouble, I don't know. But it's gratifying to see how many people are willing to speak up when they were taken advantage of, not just to benefit themselves, but to prevent the same thing from happening to others. They are speaking up in so many ways - posing on message boards, sending out emails, and of course reporting Ladys and Lads to every agency available.

Thank you so much for everyone who has stepped up. You truly are making a difference.
