Very positive reply. Does Art Jonak have anything to do with Quorum?
Whenever a person comments on an MLM I think it important for the readers to 
know if that person is or was associated with the company.  Personal 
opinions can be different based on a persons experience and point of view.
I am non active in Quorum - meaning I'm registered but have no recruited 
anyone.
