Chris,

For your information I have used it on several occasions. If you want
more information, email me directly. I don't want to clutter the
precious newsgroup with SPAM that some squirrel-boy might not like.

If you don't want to read SPAM why do you bother to waste your time to
reply to messages that are labelled FS:? That stands for FOR SALE. If
you aren't interested, don't read. There are some people in this group
that may actually be interested.

Look here, you stupid piece of ****, Cyli was polite and (this one's
for you, Wolfie ;-) spot on when she replied to your SPAM. Take your
damn SPAM and shove it up your dumb ass sideways. We here on this
"precious" newsgroup might not be so polite next time, you sorry
****wit.

Thanks



I think he meant me. Part of my sig file is "Speaker to Squirrels".
Considering he said, "boy" as part of it, it shows he's not read this
group much, if any, in the past several years.

Therefore, he's really silly to SPAM us. As well as too cheap and

too
'Net new to even have a Web page for his dubious product.

Googled it up. You're correct in that.

However, the page and the 'information' gives a lot more ammunition to
detractors.

Just as an example, how much of that 'extensive testing' was double
blind by an outside agency? Or even without double blind by an
outside agency? What, exactly is in the 'essential oils' and the
'natural oils' used to dilute them? The aromatherapy group would have
your neck for that one. There are some essential oils that even in
the dilution you indicate aren't great to be around. And many more
that are utterly useless.

And if you tell me to ask you in email, I'll quote you to yourself, as
you said in a baseball group to someone who dared put in something OT,
"Get lost, loser." Only you had it in caps. I can't see bothering
with them.

It was Usenet newsgroup SPAM and we just don't allow it. If
fly fishing/outdoor products marketers find a captive group
of those folks most likely to buy their products they will
flood this forum with advertisements. That's just the nature
of the beast.

Take your bug dope advertisement and construct a four-line
sig that you can attach to all your on-topic and pro-Kerry
contributions to this forum and you'll be doin' alright. ;-)

Ken,

If she wanted information she could have emailed me and I would have
shown her where to find it.
I was not trying to SPAM anyone. I am sorry you took it as SPAM. If
you looked at the post, it was only sent to this group. It was not
cross-posted. I was trying to get the news out about this product.
Yes, I am selling this product. I probably should have made the
message shorter.


It doesn't matter, Dustin. Any *commercial* sales in NGs that are not
specifically designed for that purpose are frowned up on.

Cyli didn't want info, she was admonishing you. Cyli is ROFF's elected
bouncer and we back her to the nth degree, unless of course there's a
*decent* bribe proffered!


I apologize for the squirrel-boy and "precious" comments.


Warning: Never! Ever! Apologize on ROFF. Well I do it all the time, but
I'm a wuss.

Mark

Dustin
