Well David,
You'd have to know a little bit of the history of this newsgroup.
Dave B. was a major contributing member of this NG long before he
opened his BBQ joint this last October. Anyone who's been reading the
NG for more than 6 months has been able to follow some of the progress
as Dave moved from 'Enthusiast' to 'proprietor'. A number of us even
traveled up to his grand opening to show our support.
So it's not about someone spamming or posting a commercial post. It's
one of the newgroup regulars sharing their experience.
