That's what I thought...
<puts on flame retardant suit>
Why then did you post to .general [being for general interest] and not to
.loc.us [for items of specific interest to US residents as opposed to the
rest of the world]?
After all...if I started saying that my local Kmart [neglecting to mention I
live in Victoria, Australia] had X-Wings for $15 on clearance, and everyone
around the US went to their local KMart and found that it wasn't there,
there'd be all sorts of complaints. Therefore, I only post things regarding
Aus in .loc.au and would expect others to act in a similar matter with their
posts.
In fact, Todd has agreed with this sort of observation in the past [yet done
little to police it :( ]:

[I see no difference between sales posts as mentioned, and others like this
competition.]
Todd: any chance you could do something to stop posts about US ONLY items of
info finding their way to areas that aren't US ONLY ? [maybe make it clearer
that .general is NOT for items of interest to ONLY 1 country, no matter what
percentage of lugnet users are from that country?]
