Hi Todd,

I understand your position on this recurring theme. However, every time we
go through this friendly argument I receive many, many more supportive
comments than negative ones. My intension is to continue to send commercial
posts. I will try to keep them less often (on average) than 1 every week or
2. As has been my practice of late I will highlight the posts with the term
"Commercial" in the header so that people can ignore them if they choose.
They are easy to ignore if you choose.

My impression is that most people on this newsgroup like to learn about new
and updated products here.

I am not trying to get rich, but rather to support the soaring community.

Thank you,

Paul Remde

I'm sorry about this being the 3rd commercial post I've done in the last

one.

At the risk of being flamed again, the Charter of
rec.aviation.soaring does not allow *any* commercial
messages in this forum. You should be ashamed of yourself,
as you know the rules. Other soaring suppliers abide by
them. Put a link to your web site in your sig.

2) Commercial Advertisements
The general rule of thumb is that you need to take the time
to learn where your advertisement is appropriate before you
post it. If you are not sure where your advertisement is
appropriate, don't post it. Another good rule of thumb is
that unless the group's charter or FAQ specifically mentions
that some limited types of advertising are welcome, you
should assume that no commercial postings are allowed.

You will be asked to enter your SeeYou registration
key when you place the order.

People really should not give these out. You should ask for
other proof (canceled check, etc.)

I don't mean to jump on you Paul, but this is not a
commercial forum and it's against the
