I fear that your people are expendible, Jose.

You guys are correct, of course. They need to get accurate marketing research samples from all ethnic groups, target markets, etc. We just happen to be "innocent victims". :)

Puerto Rico also happened to be one of the test zones for Agent Orange and "The Pill". Go figure.

No fast food involved there! ;-)

Seriously, though, I used to know the head of Biz Dev for MacDonalds. (May
you did, too -- Marty Silbernik from the MAUG on CIS?). They test stuff all
over the place, especially around Chicago.
(ASIDE: Marty Silbernik?? Now, that's a name I haven't heard in a while. I wonder if MAUG is still running on what's left of CIS..).
