When every message I get has banner advertising all over it, it takes
away from my ability to read the message and is a completely unnecessary
distraction. If you don't want to participate in trying to get our
host organization (or whoever is responsible for this) to fix this -- a
promise that was made several months ago -- then don't participate in
the discussion under this subject heading. There's a lot of things
that in principle I believe and do nothing about. Being able to work
together without the grotesque intrusion of these stupid advertisements
(which obviously aren't going to sell anything to any of us anyway) is
a necessity, not a luxury. I *do* protest loudly.
