I never said George was alone.

Your assertion was perfectly illustrated recently on one of those tv
network news magazines with a dead serious scam of boutique bottled
water. Patrons were shown a professionally printed "water list"
offering a half dozen high end (supposedly) bottled waters, some as
high as $15 glass. The patrons were sucking it up, oohing and ahhing
over how good each selection they tried was and which were better than
the other. The kicker? ....I know you see it coming.... all bottles
were being filled from the same garden hose out back!

Dontchya just love it!
