Karen -
This goes too far in my opinion in making this group Email too commercial .
It is to be used by members to pass along information not for commercial
plugs even under the guise of informationals ..If in the future, a member
asks for data about some Product or Service that you offer, I suggest that
you reply only to that person...For the rest of you commerical members
please learn from Karens mistake else I for one, will lobby to get you off
of the list!!
