"Parent alert: the Walt Disney Company is now offering refunds for
all those 'Baby Einstein' videos that did not make children into
geniuses."  [Up to $15.99 for up to 4 videos per family returned to
Disney, bought between June 5, 2005 and Sept. 5, 2009.]  NYTimes,
Oct. 24, page 1.

Sounds like a winner for Disney -- what parents would openly
acknowledge that their children are not geniuses?
