Fw: Broken Sigg Bottle Top - repeated emails sent and no reply :-(

Here are two emails I sent back in April hoping to receive a replacement for the bottle cap that my daughter bought which broke right away on its second use.  I am dismayed by the lack of response we have received.  This is just a child who doesn't have a lot of money to burn - she chose a Sigg bottle as a gift and was almost immediately disappointed. 
 
Six months have gone by, and the bottle is still sitting gathering dust on a shelf.  What a waste, for a company that's made its reputation on its "green" products.
 
I would appreciate a reply - a replacement bottle top would be even better.

I am forwarding this (see email, below) to you in the hope that you can help us, as I haven't heard back from the Sigg contact within Canada.
 
Thanks in advance!

Subject: Broken Bottle Top

After months of trying to decide whether we wanted Sigg or Kleen Kanteen bottles, my daughter received a lovely cobalt-blue Sigg bottle with an Active Bottle Top.  Unfortunately, the second time she used it, the "flap cap" on the bottle top just snapped off.  To my knowledge, it wasn't subjected to any unusual stress; it just broke off as she opened it (maybe opening it too far?  but if that's the case, the cap is just plain flimsy).
 
I'd like to request a replacement bottle top, and would be happy to return this one wherever necessary.  The store where it was purchased (Li'l Niblets & Baby Sprouts on Avenue Road in Toronto, approximately in November, but there hasn't been much call for cold-water bottles in the last few months... :-)) didn't have any exchange information.
 
Yours truly,

    Interesting that the posting of a disappointing letter regarding SIGG bottles is framed on the blog by advertising for SIGG bottles. I have had a similar experience with them, in addition, once dented the warranty is voided and that scares me

    Ahh... but apparently my badgering worked, because we have found SIGG satisfaction! See my latest post for pic!

What do we tell our kids about Chabad and “Yechi”?

If I start by saying I really like Chabad, and adore the late Lubavitcher Rebbe, z"l, well... maybe you already know where I'm headed. Naomi Rivka has been asking lately what I think about Chabad.  She asks, in part, because she already knows how I feel.  She already knows I’m bothered, though to her, it’s mostly about “liking” and “not liking.”  I wish things were that simple. Our little neighbourhood in Israel has a significant Chabad presence, and Chabad conducts fairly significant outreach within the community.  Which sounds nice until you realize that this is a religious neighbourhood, closed on Shabbos, where some huge percentage of people are shomer mitzvos.  Sure, it’s mostly religious Zionist, and there are a range of observances, for sure, but we’re pretty much all religious here in some way or another. So at that point, this isn’t outreach but inreach .  Convincing people who are religious to be… what? A lot of Chabad’s efforts here are focused on kids, including a
