Re: Monsanto?!
Would any single person legitimately feel comfortable showing the CEO of Monsanto this thread? There was already a similar discussion (although the issue was different) with FIRST being sponsored by Jane Cosmetics. I know we may not all agree on our sponsors, and that's fine. No company is perfect. But are we really going to go back and forth on CD having conversations about our sponsors that could easily be interpreted as ungrateful?

Nobody is forcing any of our sponsors to help us. It's by their own choice, and they could at any point decide to stop sponsoring FIRST. The best way we can hold on to our sponsors is by showing gratitude to them. I've yet to see a thread on CD that THANKS major FIRST sponsors. I've only seen ones questioning them. I can tell from these threads most people are grateful, but I'm not so sure we do a very good job of showing it.
