They aren't going spend money producing something that won't make $$$. I think the angry people don't realize that.

True, but it's not like the only GLOs that were left out were small. I'd dare to say that every group that made it to the top top 9 has 100,000+ collegiate members. That's a lot of buying power. I think it would have been prudent for them to produce all 9. While not every member, collegiate of alumna, will buy a Lilly product, there are a lot of people who would buy more than one.
