This was in this morning's email.

Presented here as an interesting idea, so the specific contact details
for additional information or purchase information have been eliminated
from this post. In the unlikely event that somebody would be interested
in contacting the firm that makes this device, Email me at

and I'll send the contact info via that route:

Hi Chuck,

Chuck, remind me again how this is not SPAM.


Chuck works for a magazine. Magazines have new product pages which are
nothing but a brief mention of thing that might be interesting to readers.


I understand. I would have had no problem with Chucks post if he did
not copy an email he received from a manufacturer specifically
mentioning their products name and with Chuck offering to act as
middleman to facilitate the sale of the stuff.

As it stood his post was pure Spam and as Head Sheriff of the NG he
should have know that and modified his post as I suggested. I am just
reminding him of the rules so he learns to walk the walk.

It is interesting to see his deputies come to his rescue though. (not
you Doug). ;-)
