"After one recent speech in Washington, D.C. — as he was doling out Jones Sodas — a young girl handed him a card, which he tucked in his pocket. When he pulled it out later, he saw it was a card with a phone number for a local suicide prevention center.

The girl had written this message on the card: "Thank you. I won't be needing this anymore."

Sundquist sat down and drank a Jones Soda. And cried."

If this is true, would that not make it worth it?

And I'm not sure what about this article makes things so filthy.... can anyone explain?

motivation - or rather, lack of - is a major problem among youth now. i think anything that tries to address that is good - and if jones cola wants to get something out of it, well that's human nature. you really can't change that
at least they're supporting a good cause rather than just paying celebrities to endorse their product

Hmmm...here's a headline buried further inside that issue of USA Today?:

"Soda Found to Cause Cancer in Laboratory Rats"

now that would be something.....but then again, cancer causing agents are just about in everything now, so i don't see that soda should be any different....
