Many thanks. My head was sent reeling at the mere thought of this. The Klein
article was actually pretty good.

Par example, "And now, in a rather surreal twist, Klein is being invited to
talk to people at the very companies that she criticizes. Her message may
not be one that they're eager to hear, but her ideas, coupled with
increasing public protests, are so compelling that many businesspeople feel
they have no choice but to listen. Klein won't talk to individual companies
behind closed doors. "I don't want to be a brand consultant," she says. "I
think my ideas are enormously unprofitable. But I do want to talk to
businesspeople as citizens.'"
