Can you make it clearer when a post is just a promotional piece? Posted by: Ron Zeno on May 18, 2003 10:46 PM
Ron, it is a promo piece, yes. But, it is going to be free for UPA members and only 10 pounds for non-members. That doesn't seem out of hand. (In general, I don't post promotional pieces.) The UPA did not pay me to post this. If they did, it would be a nice little source of income. I only *wish* more folks asked me to post stuff for money. Of course, I'd be very open about it...

My concern was that it looks like to a link to an article on the topic, especially the quote. Only the date at the end gives any indication that it's something else. Posted by: Ron Zeno on May 19, 2003 10:46 AM
