Tim Smith Some of us may actually be thrilled that these folks are getting their business off the ground. I think it's pretty cool that they're able to start a business doing what all of us are doing anyway - messing around with our busses. If you don't want to hear about it, don't read those messages. Maybe they really *are* nice folks; contrary to what you may think, there are people who get into a business because they like what they do, and what you call "feel good advertising" is quite possibly just "being friendly", something that's becoming increasingly rare in this day and age. Unless the word comes down that this type of talk *is* forbidden on the list (i.e. by someone who has the authority to make such a ruling) I suggest you stop whining and go back to your Porcshe and Audi lists where people don't say things which bother you. - Tom, in an exceptionally cranky mood this morning.
