Sounds legit to me.

So, I guess the complaint being made here is "Why do these awful credit card pushing bloggers still write trip reports even when it's recycling material extensively? Why can't they just go away, because they're so awful? Incidentally, I hate bloggers who push credit cards, have I mentioned that recently?"

Well, if they did we wouldn't have this lovely forum, wouldn't we? Can't have metacommentary without the commentary to be meta about.

FWIW, I've seen prolific trip report writers report on the same product multiple times in the TR forum. But they're not pushing CC's so it's all good. They should totally be allowed to write whatever they want to on whatever subject amuses them. But once you're a blogger... well...
