Hi Jody!

I certainly don't mind seeing an occassional adv on MMD.  I have not
found the number of advs excessive, and do not feel that onyone has
abused the privilege of access to MMD.  Seems to me that one of the
benifits of MMD is to inform a generally qualified and interested
audience of the availability of a special item when it comes along.

I think adverts should be limited to single items, and not mass
produced items that are readily available through normal channels.
Such items might well be listed in a buyer's guide available through
FTP or published periodically on MMD.
