I LIKE well-done advertising on the net.  What I mean by well-done is short
(like <= 30 lines), techy and posted only once.  If you check the guidelines
in news.newusers, you'll find that this is explicitly permitted, too.  What
I don't like is ads that are long, 'clever', repititious, and posted more
than once.  I tend to inform posters of 'poor taste' ads by replying to 
their ads, and so far, they have replied politely and have agreed.
