To be fair, I probably did over-react and jumped the gun by posting here. Chalk it up to a very low 'commercial' threshold nurtured by years of spam and too much time in the petty politics of FT.

To set the record straight, I didn't ask for the thread to be closed -- just for the link to be edited out.

My thanks to ScottC for quickly responding to my e-mail and editing the link. Next time I know to give it more time before 'escalating' it to ORP.

Sorry to have caused such a storm in a teacup.
