<DIV>Bob, how true!!! Great and touching commercial (commercial may
be too strong a msg).</DIV>

<DIV>Over the past few years, I have traveled a lot and have noticed a trend in
airports. It is not uncommon for people to approach military people, introduce
themselves and in a lot of cases shake their hands and or thank them for their
service. </DIV>

this is 'off-topic Monday', I thought I'd share a reaction I had to one of the
ads from the Super Bowl. Incredibly creative people were able to convey
an amazing and emotional situation just through staging an "arrival" of troops
at the airport. One person clapped. Then two, then before long,
the entire concourse erupts in applause....for whom? Returning vets in
desert utility uniforms. Closes with a simple "Thank You".<BR><BR>What a
tremendous message!<BR><BR>What a huge contrast from my OWN 'homecoming' from
VietNam in '72, where I was greeted with a crowd of spitters and
curses.<BR><BR>Some things DO improve....I'm very happy a brewer cared to send
that message last night!!! I hope you are, also!<BR><BR>Bob Pastorello,
