From Jim, One of Millerton's Fans

Thanks for responding Chitchat. To be honest, I was not aware of the other Millerton web site. In fact, interestingly enough, when you Google Millerton, NY the millertonny.com web site is prominently displayed thus, I was unaware of the other site. I agree with you. For only $40, if I were a small shop owner, I choose to spend my dollars where the search engines point which is clearly Millertonny.com :-)
