Thanks for that update, Cynthia - the World watches!  (At least, our
little part of it does.)

As a firm believer that 'sticks' are more effective than 'carrots' when
dealing with corporations, I feel that the denial of Target's petition
is a minor victory in its own right and that it may cause some
uneasiness amongst those who think that social inclusion is an option
rather than an obligation.

Cheers
