Yoo Hoo, Carin!

Carin, I have seen your replies to John, in which you've said:

 CMA> apology.
You said this in response to John Giannini saying to you:

Carin, that was not a flame.  John was speaking the truth.  It doesn't
matter if you couldn't afford the video at the time or not (and you had
two years to save up about $20 for the Aladdin video before Disney
stopped selling it, which seems a reasonable time frame for most anyone
to save up $20.).
If you wish to take a time out from the echo, so be it.  If you wish to
respond to this, please do so via private e-mail.

What these "profiteers" are doing is not in any way stopped by Disney.
One could make the argument that Disney is doing a bit of it themselves,
since by having a moratorium on videos it creates more demand for when
they decided to rerelease a video in the future.
