Does seem like a lot of self promotion, perhaps a line or two for his ad would have been enough.

To the extent someone whats to use this information, it seems to fit here.

As someone who makes his living exclusively on the web, I can assure you that pgary probably makes very little off of his efforts, while providing a truly great service to the online community.

OTOH, I hate posts that go on forever...

Very good info, but please post a link to the site in the future. Much easier to read things when they are on a website in properly formatted HTML

Take it easy, Leona! Only the 'little people' pay taxes and use chocolate tea pots.

Ditto. There are no ads on his site, so it seems the only compensation he gets is when people have him refer them when they sign up for various programs (even then it is compensation in the form of miles, not cash). Keep up the great info stream, Gary and try to just summarize the new stuff here on your FT posts.
