In 990831 MMDigest John Farrell says that advertising in MMD is one of
the things he looks for.  I agree entirely.

Additionally, there are some people whose very names are advertisements.
What if we were to embargo Art Reblitz, Doug Henderson, Tim Baxter and
Nancy Fratti (to name a few) just because their contributions always
mention (or recall to mind) their unique businesses and products?

I enjoy reading about the various works in progress and the unique
items available.  Is it "evil advertising" when Doug reveals his
artistic techniques or when Andy Taylor says he put a few rolls on
eBay?

Let's avoid any petty situation where Artist A is somehow allowed to
plug his wares because he's a non-profit foundation while Artist B is
forbidden because he's actually figured out how to make a living at it!
