They don’t bother me at all. If they did, they are easily turned off client side. (hint: host file)
Dinowitz has put in a lot of time and work to make these CF lists what they are. The mailing lists alone are enough to keep us all in touch with one another but the site and its archives is a big bonus. You could always just keep every email in your inbox for 'archives' if you don’t want to see the ads. We aren’t asked to pay for our subscriptions and we can’t ask Michael to pay for keeping it up. So by all means, put ads anywhere and everywhere you want on the site if it means income to keep these lists going! -----Original Message----- From: Michael Dinowitz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 20, 2005 9:17 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: wtf are those advertizing links in the text?
