<p>I was reading about <a title="Hansen" href="http://www.hansens.com/" target="_blank">Hansen</a>, maker of Monster Energy Drink, and their <a title="consumerist.org" href="http://consumerist.com/5382858/monster-energy-trains-legal-guns-on-beverage-review-website" target="_blank">attack on beverage review site</a>, BevReview, and decided to congratulate Hansen on what&#8217;s obviously a community outreach program to hire the mentally challenged.</p>
<blockquote><p>I was reading about your misconception of BevReview&#8217;s review of your product as an advertisement, and I wanted to applaud Hansen for their work in hiring the mentally challenged.  Not everyone would put those with mental retardation in such a public position and I applaud Hansen for having the guts to do it.  However, just a bit of friendly advice, you might wan to rein them in.  Between this and the attacks on that winery in Vermont they&#8217;re embarrassing you.</p></blockquote>
