QuoteDayDreamerBut it concerns me that there are no truly negative reviews other than that. There SHOULD be. There's no way that every single person was oh-so-happy with HAI. That is just statistically improbable. So, where are those people? Refusing to break confidentiality? Figuring themselves better off away from HAI and refusing to discuss it? Shut down by HAI "powers that be"
