This has become a world wide problem. Genuine Canadian Ballast Rocks (TM)
are as popular with thieves as a Chicago Bulls jacket or a Jeep Cherokee.
Canadian Ballast Rock Ltd, however,  has not stood idly by. In conjunction
with American Express we are now offering our new CBR Security Service. If
your rocks go missing for any reason, simply call the American Express Toll
free Hotline and we will have replacement rocks delivered to you no matter
where in the world you may be within 24 hours. All you need is an American
Express Platinum Card and a Cell phone and you will never have to do with
out your rocks again.
