Purple Heart Bandage at RNC - I just talked to a 3M bandage rep

[jean]

about this. She is a Skin Health line rep. She googled 'purple heart bandage' and was shocked - they had not heard of the story.

Her search came up with a metrospy.com site...she said "BLAND aids? what is that...not band aids..."

Anyway, maybe we can search for these bandages online and find the source.

She said to google 'purple heart bandages' or 'purple heart bandage' and not to use band aid or band aid, since that's a brand name.

I told her the outrage this is fomenting and suggested 3M do a press release distancing the company from this demeaning stunt. She is going to pass the info up to her supervisor.

3M hadn't heard of this until I called and complained - what other bandage companies can we alert and ask for press releases from?

edit: I just tried calling metrospy.com - their phone number is 909-356-5354. An answering service answered - said the order phones are busy and to call back in a little while. I couldn't find the bandages on their site - metrospy.com. They have loads of anti-Kerry stuff.
