[Fot] Drive Away Cancer, response from Advance Video and Security.

[Tony Drews]

On John's facebook page there has been a minor firestorm over this 
issue.  ADT Security corporate has been brought into the fray.  The 
employee at this establishment which collected the $55 has apologized 
on John's facebook page (good strategy) and has claimed to have 
donated $500 to John's cause.  Not sure if the check clears, etc., 
but it sounds like they may have realized the error in their 
ways.  The local police has been asked if it's legal for private 
parties to "boot" cars and they don't allow it, but aren't going to 
do anything.  Interesting, nonetheless.
