Hello Ann,

It's been a LOOOONG couple of years, but, yes, it seems that many
people will be eligible for refunds. The AG's Consent Decree with
the Millers reads that anyone who purchased Gentle Wind products
from 2003 to the present is eligible for a refund.

We don't hear anything directly from the AG's office, probably
because the individuals who used to run GWP are still suing us at
the moment. (The individuals can't direct GWP to sue us any longer,
since GWP's affairs are now controlled by a court-appointed
Receiver, but the Millers et al can continue suing us as individuals
if they have the time and money.)

Our recommendation would be to contact Assistant Attorney General
Carolyn Silsby, who conducted the investigation against GWP. Ms.
Silsby could tell you what kind of receipts might be necessary --
perhaps credit card statements, cancelled checks, or the like?

As for reinventing themselves as another organization, your guess is
as good as anyone's about what the Millers might do. They are
forbidden from forming another nonprofit in Maine, but they might
try elsewhere. There is a group called Allies for Trauma Relief that
has already been mentioned on this Forum that purportedly
distributed the former GWP's "healing" products to trauma victims.
Maybe they still do.

Good luck with the refund situation.

Judy
