I prefer a cork over some other closure, but I think these miss the mark. And if you believe the premise that cork is better, how is the person in the office that brings a screw top, "conniving, brown nosing ... ?"

Stupid, boorish, and offensive to their own customers.

But many ad campaigns still seem to successfully subscribe to the old adage of Mencken that no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the public.
