Sometimes it is hard to convince an individual that a service so widely offered by the largest companies in the industry is an exercise in futility.The best we can hope for is to give people the benefit of our experience and eventually people will come to understand that we have nothing to gain by misleading them, but that those companies offering pointless submissions most certainly do.Thanks for stopping by and for taking the time to comment!
