I didn't see anything on here that doesn't seem correct. It does a
good job of pointing out that Woodward and Brady and the TEAM folks
are very minor players in the world of Amway; 10% of the
ever-dwindling N American business is just a blip on the radar,
compared with the overseas volume of Yager and Britt.
