I would guess you are refering to her statement that, "value can be missed if delivery is uncomfortable." I understand it and agree with it. The problem is I often don't have the time to stop and think how to make the message more comfortable. What in particular would you like to see changed?
Well that was a general question posed to another person, but I for one wish what you would change about the delivery is to somehow not care so much and talk so much about what is happening outside your own choices of food. The Villages Inc...I doubt will change their marketing. People won't probably change their food choices due to what they read on TOTV and you won't change your attitude and ideas about what YOU think is healthy and unhealthy to do, eat and choose.

People who know how to interact with others successfully and sometimes teach them something and change their minds usually give "I messages". This is what I think and avoid being critical of another's views.

But first we have to entertain the idea that we could be wrong in some of our ideas. And you have to entertain the idea that you could be wrong in some of your ideas.

The last one to turn out the lights wins I guess in this argument.
