Thanks, Matt,

Yes, that link is unformatted text, but following from the LOPSA home page, to 
the blog, to the article and you still have an advertisement. 

It's kind of like having a breaking news event of national scale and having a 
pop-up window or a pre-video commercial. It's distracting from the message and 
emphasizes revenue before the message.

Perhaps it's just my mindset and I'm a bit overly sensitive to it. *shrug*

On a related note, is that statement being posted or promoted anywhere to bring 
visibility to LOPSA?
