Maybe you should follow some of your own advice.... Sometimes ya just gotta
love Google... Steve has contributed a lot to this group and I have no
problem with his advertising at all... One of these days I am gonna order a
plane or two from him.

Like you said, "If you do not like it try first to IGNORE IT or even better
try a filter".......OK?

For some reason the first post did not seem to go through sorry if this is a
repost

What is the real problem here ?
Did someone's feelings get hurt over a few swear words. If you do not
like it IGNORE it. It is that simple OK.
I am not a Christian but I have to put up with all the god bless this
and that but I chose to IGNORE it because I believe in freedom of speech and
that everyone has the right to it. I swear like a drunken sailor on leave
around the shop. But when I am having a discussion on a news group I refrain
from swearing as it usually just takes away from the topic at hand . But I
am not going to jump up and down stamping my feet because somebody posts
some swearing. If you do not like it try first to IGNORE IT or even better
try a filter.

First thing I am not new here.
Second thing it is one thing if some one else referred his site than
if
he did. If he needs to advertise he should set up a mailing list in which
the recipient gives him his permission to be on it. He could very easily
do
this by setting up a link on his site.
It should not mater if someone is a "member" of a group in order to
advertise on it. It is bad edict. This is a forum for questions and
answers
and an exchange of ideas not to self promote your products. Should
everyone
or every business start doing it? How would you like that if the borg
started advertising there sales here? To me there is no difference ok.
