Fraud Alert (not election related): I got an email from Eleven Forest,
(which I thought was a rather strange name anyway) advertising what was about to be a discontinued line of cat-themed clothing. I was puzzled as to how I was on the mailing list of a company that I had never heard of, but went to their website. Saw some cute things. But googled a bit more, found anoher company called ELVEN Forest, thought I was misreading. Googled some more. Learned that ELVEN Forest is a legit company specializing in handmade RenFaire-style clothing, a woman-owned, woman-run company located here in Colorado. The ELEVEN company is a total fraud, located in china, producer of truly shoddy, fake clothing.They are, apparently, counting on the similarity in names to lure suckers.
Now, I realize this is not terribly important on this particular day, but just wanted to put the word out.
