Gardenbanter is making money from their ads on the backs of the people who
post information and advice here freely and out of goodwill and an interest
in and enthusiasm for gardening. That is /not/ what usenet is about, and
there are many people on urg and other newsgroups who do not wish their posts
to be used in that way. There are some who filter out postings made via
Gardenbanter, so the posters there are not getting as much advice as they
might otherwise do.

So why try to advertise it?

This is a very good newsgroup and does not require being 'bought together
with any other'!

This is so transparent an effort as to be laughable. Again, someone with
no real name or address.
