That messages from Suzanne Pardee (at IGC.APC.ORG) is
breaching the almost universally agreed netiquette which
unanimously prohibits unsolicited advertising over Internet.

I do not object seeing objective comparisons of products, but
these should not be produced by the manufacturers or 
salespersons of the product!

Our problem here is that most of these ads come from outside
the list's subscribers and your objections on this list do not
reach the original sender. Please, all subscribers to forest-list,
send your objections to the postmaster@igc.apc.org, and the
original sender spardee@igc.apc.org and fill their mailbox. 

Please, let's not start a discussion on advertising here. 
Let's save the bandwith for forestry discussion. There may 
be only one way to prevent these messages in the future and 
that is to change the list to a moderated one.
