		<description>I came across this brief story recently in a book and thought it worth retelling -
This was maybe fifteen years ago, a time when it began to seem as though Envirosell might succeed as an ongoing concern. Up until that point, though, it was an open question &amp;#8211; I was borderline broke all the time, working like [...]&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheTruthAboutAmway/~4/B-iGwm6Ky5Q" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

		<description>In my earlier post (and in the comments) on Amway Global&amp;#8217;s sales in 2008 I incorrectly thought that Internet Retailer regularly reported much the same overall figures as Amway reported as total sales figures for Amway North America.
It seems I was wrong. Regular visitor SP75 has tracked down the Internet Retailer reporter online sales data [...]&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheTruthAboutAmway/~4/7RMylXc2gEI" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

		<description>Back in February, Amway reported their 2008 sales at $8.2 billion globally. In a break from previous years, the data for Amway Global/Quixtar  in North America was not reported separately. In what was clearly a bit of spin, Amway PR explained they were moving away from reporting individual market data. The US press releases rarely [...]&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheTruthAboutAmway/~4/04QfiNGCOds" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

I&amp;#8217;ve now added an extension to the Wiki which allows us to easily list these pages and so far we have information (at [...]&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheTruthAboutAmway/~4/zHpF8BqiEQg" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

		<description>Anti-Amway zealot JoeCool has posted various responses to my Anatomy of Deceit &amp;#8211; an Amway Critic&amp;#8217;s Price Comparison post accusing me of being a liar and wrong etc etc. One particular post is absolutely hilarious and is truly indicative of what we&amp;#8217;re dealing with here -

JoeCool is of course a well known anti-Amway zealot. So I thought I&amp;#8217;d have a look at JoeCool&amp;#8217;s price comparisons, and he [...]&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheTruthAboutAmway/~4/pDY1SmXS9uM" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>
