Commercialization of MMD?

> Your Comments on Ads
Personally I've never had a problem with ads appearing from time to time on MMD. And I wonder how many of MMD's subscribers first learned about it because one of its subscribers cross-posted a FS: ad appearing in some other newsgroup?
I don't believe we've ever had so many ads that they might be considered bothersome. There are negatives and positives, but on balance I fully support Jody's judgement call on whether or not a commercial ad is appropriate.
It would not surprise me at all to learn that he has been exercising his editorial prerogative all along with some modest filtering for the overall good of this special interest group. That's one of the things that a moderator/editor does.
Jody, you have my vote of confidence.
Sincere regards, and many thanks for keeping MMD thriving and prospering. It is fine service to the whole world that you provide for which I'm extremely grateful.
