Well, the content is no longer an issue. BW is kindly allowing us to keep our stuff (thanks BW). I was merely correcting the misconception of our new 'coffee shoppers' and Cindy, that Webnode started out of the blocks as being belligerent with BW when indeed that wasn't the case. They got rude right at the start, but we kept our cool and complied, as much as possible. They wanted 'Business Wire' off, so I took it off. They wanted 'Bidness Wire' off, so I took it off. BW's 'look and feel' complaint was especially idiotic and I issued a challenge: Find any BW release here: businesswire.com …which has the same 'look and feel' as the two-column, pull-quote, stylistically chic issue here: webnode.com So far—nobody has found one.
