> I'm real sorry about this. I know it was a useless move to not warn people sooner. Still have high hopes for everyone in whatever they want to try. This is only my experience, but for now I can only give my warning against the LA stuff, and possible uneasiness about the product in general. My hopes are still high for myself as well though.
