Louise and Tony and all the rest,

I see this issue as slightly more complex.  Intsrumedics' postings are 
generally a reply to someone's posted request for help. Such things are 
supposed to be OK on Histonet. I think you would agree, Tony, that 
vendor response to specific help requests is not necessarily a bad 
thing.  Lab workers don't always have knowledge of every specialized 
product.  Christof's posting doesn't fall into this category, however.  
It is an _unsolicited announcement_ of a new, apparently unique, 
product.  I'm not exactly sure how I feel about this.  Maybe Christof is 
doing a service to people who could use his software and might not 
otherwise hear about it for a while.  This is the only announcement 
we've seen from him, it's not very long, obtrusive or hard sell.  Maybe 
Histonet should allow these kind of postings if they don't become too 
annoying or get in the way.  Pests have been flamed out of existence in 
the past and certainly could be in the future.
