- Well, I don't care either way, since I read it on GEnie. The main benefit
- I feel for it being posted here is that we will get more people (therefore
- better discussions) on GEnie. But, what in the Lamp is an advertisement?
- Sure "GEnie" pops up about 1000 times, but it does that on GEnie so it is
- not meant to be advertising. Maybe it's the message at the end telling
- how to join GEnie, I consider that a followup. If that's the main problem,
- can that be dropped? or is it required by GEnie. Either way, count me as
- a vote to put it on c.s.a2 since I think the benefit is greater than the
- questionable advertising.
