I think before we boycott the store, we should give the manager a chance to
respond. I have already passed the name on to Shadowace to get to his
buddy. I'll let you all know what the manager says. Thanks!!

Yes, I think a boycott of the store, with a call to the manager for the
reason why, would be good. I think passing the guy's name to Shadowace's
buddy would be good too.

Find out which REI he works at. :) At the very least, unless something
is done about it by the manager, it can become a business formally
boycotted by cachers, who as I recall, are quite the outdoor enthusiast
