Yup. You are - or at least _I_ believe the same.
I have to agree with Bonnie here. What is the difference between:
o posting an `advertisement' for video tapes of a conference
o posting an `advertisement' to attend the actual conference?
IMHO, both posts fall within the purvue of TechWhiral Land, because
both posts tell me how to improve my skills.
Don't I have to pay to obtain either item?
