When I was feeding hay I would wear out 3 or 4 pair a year and nothing else would last a month. I really hate them giving money to PETA but as long as they buy cotton from Plains Co Op I won't bite the hand that feeds me. You could always find out how much they donate per pair, and double that amount to an appropriate group. Following that up with a letter to Levi's telling them that wouldn't hurt. Not to say folks shouldn't follow the above advice (as a rule americans could stand to be a lot more charitable), but something that seems to be lost in the mix is that it was an employee who donated to PETA and Levi Strauss matched the employees donation through a fairly standard matching contribution plan. It doesn't appear that Levi's actually decided to donate money to PETA of their own volition. rw2 -- ----------------------------------------------------- Poliglut.org Politics from the excellence in blogging think tank We welcome everyone, no matter how wrong you might be ----------------------------------------------------- |
