Hi all
I think I need to reply to this with more than "sorry".
My first thought was that two words ought to suffice.
But where's the proportion in all of this ?
Yes, I've posted to the .market tree before, BUT have never really
digested that anything 'commercial' is disallowed out of it.
In this case I thought that people with special interests (like myself!)
would understand what I had to offer and that was the place to say what I
had to say.
To be honest I hadn't heard of marketplace-brickshops (that's true)
and for sure I owe the site-map a bit of reading.
Nothing more. Probably just laziness, nothing cynical.
I'm sure glad I didn't kill anyone.
As for :
> financial gain.
Well, at least those of you who know me might get a laugh out of that one.
> "It's hard to imagine that he doesn't know how people feel about market

Well, I think I do. Some people just love to row. Maybe there is a need for
another newsgroup.
How about lugnet.self-righteous-indignation, where I imagine some recent
posts might be more appropriate.
