I'm not used to receiving advertising vis Internet e-mail. I'm especially
not thrilled to receive it via this list. So far the signal-to-noise ratio
on this list has been quite high, it'd be nice if it stayed that way. I
would assume that those of us who need to make these decisions are already
aware of Farallon and it's products through other avenues. This kind of
approach just makes me like the company a little less.

Am I overreacting or do others feel this way?
