That's why I used the Monkey Trap metaphor--they have held onto the cherry despite what it is truly, and likely ultimately, costing them. If they developed a more sound strategy, they would not only be able to hold onto the cherry, but obtain more. They have been blinded by their own greed and hubris. By doing so they risk losing it all--just like the Monkey.
I cautioned them that among their risks is failing to build a fan base that can sustain the continued onslaughts from animal protectionist groups. A small, local fan base will likely not be able to withstand a national attack that is calculated and relentless. There are other threats, but that is a good example of why their stiffing and stifling the fan base with the idiocy of the insider program is counterproductive. I could go on, but that'll do for now.

I'm drawing a blank on her name. She was so good and then....nothing. What happened to her?
