What frame and how old? I am always curious how bike companies deal with frame problems, especially ones that are not crash related.

That sucks, I have only seen that a few times on any bike. Hope they take care of you quickly.

The Milk Money is still one of the most entertaining, fun, awesome, grin-enducing bikes that I've ever ridden.

I'd buy one in a heartbeat if I had the spare cash.
