Do a search for P&G and you'll see dozens of articles. Some people are absolutely obsessed with the company. Just like the nuts who obsess over boycotting Heinz. Boycott! Boycott! Anyone and everything! Boycott! Boycott!
I think we should start a "Stoopid Boycott" ping list. :)

I like this idea. Particularly because I believe that most boycotts are completely counter-productive. The Last Temptation of Christ would have been a movie that none of us had heard of except for the religious groups that protested it. Sean Penn has just given Parker and Stone a ton of free publicity for their movie with his stupid criticisms. I think that it's possible that some boycotts could conceivably work in a limited way, but for the most part, the publicity that boycotts create almost always backfires on the protestors.
