Seeking alternate route.
Send it in 2 parts.

Just me, but I know I would prefer to talk with him face-to-face if the opportunity presented itself.
Sorry if you got the impression that I was "butting" into your business, that was not my intent Bobby.
As would I.
I would take either opportunity whether face-to-face or by letter. I am not afraid to confront people and/or have tough conversations. The most successful people I know chose to get there by choosing to be improved by criticism rather than ruined by praise.
I sent Pete a PM indicating that my letter would not fit in a PM and that I am available to communicate in whatever matter is most conducive to him. Regardless, I think it would be fair to him that he has a copy in advance so that he can be prepared to answer/comment.

I will be knocking on Dan's door the day Pete comes to NHC. I haven't had the best of luck there either, but I don't wanna steal s15's thunder.

Eleven, sorry to hear that. I'll be in Columbus at the end of the month and with Dan.
Just hanging with Dan or is there an event of some kind? I'd love to travel up with the Cincy crew and smoke a few.

I am doing an event with Dan at the end of the month but I think we are only doing a hang out session for a few hours mid day....We will be online all day....
BTW, I will be in Nicaragua all this week. If someone asks a question or wants an answer, I probably won't be able to reply right away.....

Thanks for the update Pete, see you at the end of the month.
I like the sound of "We will be online all day"...

There you go Bobby, you can send him the "full email" in one shot.

The "what I would say to Pete Johnson and the owner of New Havana Cigars (local to me)" if I ever had their attention ....after the drac incident.
You want honest feedback?
I'll give it to you if you really want it. Man to Man. Not in public.
Seriously? Wow man, you talk as if the man killed your grandma or something.

Internet talk is way different then face to face.
:-) You get to talk trash and put a person down personally on the internet.
I'm glad that the rest of the comments made by Bobby were deleted or edited in this thread, talking all kind of trash.
Good to see some real class where the owner of a company wants to meet in person to take care of the issues.

What'd you do, send him a bunch of pictures?

Again this is what I love about the Cigar community. What started out as a little rant about new logos ended up with Pete himself coming here and addressing issues personally.
There is a fine line that people like Pete and Dan at NHC have to walk. We all want them to stay small enough to be able to get involved with even the smallest complaint or suggestion, but we demand they act like multi-national conglomerates when it comes to production and distribution.
There has to be a happy medium somewhere, and here's to hoping they can address that one later this month.
I just hope its on a Monday or Thursday, those are the days I am in Columbus!
