By Skip Cohen The title is in quotes this morning because one of my Tweet buddies, @AnnetteGunter tweeted Scott Bourne and me last night with that message. It was shown towards the end of Super Bowl and as I listened and watched I was blown away by what may well be the most powerful commercial I've ever seen.

The POWER of the still image with the spoken word has the ability to touch people on a deeper level than moving pictures alone.
