[Geysers] Avis commercial

[Pat Snyder]

So I am watching the Hidden Yellowstone program on Travel Channel this 
morning (for about the 5th time, it is quite good) and less than 40 
minutes after the scenes with Mike Keller cleaning out the hot springs 
the Avis commercial comes on with the two dorks throwing a rock into a 
geyser. Seriously NOT OK.

If you have a desire to let Avis know it is not OK, the best I could 
find on their web site is the customer service links. Hey, give it a 
try. I'm going to--and I will let everyone know if I get some feedback.

Thanks.
