To be honest, I'd prefer to see private sales, free stuff & jobs continue
to go to general, while commercial stuff would go to blipverts (which
could be moderated).  I think many people will subscribe to blipvert to
get the free stuff & job postings, and have commercial postings forced on
them (so to speak).  I am one of these people.  I may be out of the
country but I still like to see what job postings and free give-aways are
happening.

What do others think?

We're off to Niagara falls tommorrow.  Last time I went (2 years ago) I
didn't take my passport.  This time I'm taking it so I can cross to the US
side of the border and get a closer look at the American falls.  Might go
on the ferry "Maid of the Mist" too...
