Ohh boy did I have some fun with them...at first. I played like "Columbo" (the detective) and acted as if I had never heard of their opportunity. It was interesting to see the various sales techniques. I also learned a lot about each of them! (I got THEIR business cards)

I think the are growing over here because almost everyone I know is starting to approach me! (SPOOKY..almost CULT LIKE)

Velly!!
