IN all the documentation I have read about Internet, and all the associated networks, it is stated that the NUMBER ONE misuse of the system is commercial advertising, and that those that do so should be reported. Now, I could care less either way, but is this rule in effect, and if so, is it enforced? The only thing that prompted this is that I DO see a lot of advertising on this list and others... Tony
