And, continuing on that vein... If she's selling it, isn't that commercial? I've seen things like this before. Vote for my son/daughter in some popularity contest to get a prize or something. There was one exception that was commercial in nature, it was IT related, IIRC. GoogleFu on my personal mailstore fails me, or it happened more than a year ago. It was related to a book on IT security written by the son of a list member. Can't recall who it was, or all the details, but it was at least relevant to the list generally.
And some people got their knickers in a twist about a person a couple of weeks ago (new to the list, but not to some members on it) presenting something that appeared to be SPAM.
