Check out their Twitter page -- they are replying to everyone with basically the same response. Granted I think they should get their money's worth. Not sure why there isn't an 8 o'clock branded coffee mug as an avatar option. Seems like a sponsorship should get you that!</p> Don Draper doesn’t believe in research, so he’d scoff at my little findings!

Carly–it seems like you’re on to something with the Twitter point. What would Don Draper think???
