[George Dinwiddie]

I think it's healthy for the list if such things are discussed.  I don't 
have any problem with people asking you about things they need or with 
you responding on the list.  I don't even have a problem with you 
mentioning a special deal that you've found that might be of interest to 
A30 sailors.  I don't want the list to become overly commercial, of 
course, and I think that taking the transaction off the list is a good 
idea, as you and Brian have done.

To be honest, I thought long and hard before putting the advertising on 
the emails.  I rationalize it that (1) it's stuff that's of interest to 
A30 sailors and (2) it's to defray the cost of running the site and 
mailing list.

As it is, I think we've got a comfortable corner of cyberspace.  I don't 
mind a little commerce taking place; I just don't want it overrun by 
hucksters and spammers.  So far, I don't think that's likely.
