CPRich: your scarcasim aside, maybe you haven't followed my story in the this or other threads? They took me up on my offer to do a PowerPoint presentation. And the "gurus" on the call were at the VP, Director and Manager level in many areas of the web division. Just because I gave the presentation I did not expect to be invited to every meeting or propose to know everything. What I did expect was some sort of follow-up, and at least some engagement. I called & emailed them reminding them that the "spg.com issues thread" keeps growing without fixes or response by the "gurus" to no avail. I didn't even get referred to a low level tech or CSR person to help troubleshoot my own constant errors.

Then, about a month ago, I was finally given a look at the same finished pages that have been previewed/promoted but thats it, no real solicitation of feedback. Again, total missed opportiunity on Starwood's end.
