I don't think that discussing the rates of what is obviously a non-profit
club should be considered as "advertising", especially in the context
of a special-interest forum like AVIATION, and especially since other
rates and prices have been discussed on this list.  In general, other lists,
such as WorkStations, have discussed prices of things, where that bears
qualitatively on some topic (i.e., can I ever afford to do X?).

If discussing costs of lessons on AVIATION is inappropriate for the ARPAnet,
then AVIATION itself is inappropriate, for whatever the same reasons are.

On the other hand, maybe all those with UseNet access (including the
poster of the message offending CStacy) should simply post only to
"net.aviation", since the UseNet is funded differently (anarchically),
and hence has far fewer constraints.
