David and others:

I do not believe that the campaign post and another one concerning WIN'95
were appropriate for this or any other BIONET newsgroup. I have written to
the postmasters at the site where the messages originated from and asked
them to ensure that we won't be flooded with similar ads from the same
persons.

                        Sincerely,
