There is a great deal of difference between Jason, or anybody else for that 
matter, answering questions and _AT THE SAME TIME ONLY_ offering a relevent 
commercial solution to an on topic question being asked, and unsolicited 
spamming of the list with highly commercial messages offering totally 
unrelated products or services.

The former is acceptable, while the latter is not.

Whether a short 'Ad Words' sentence in a signature is or is not 'spamming', is 
I suppose, open to debate. My own opinion is that a genuine sole trader 
should be allowed mention of his trade or profession while a company should 
not.
