Someone announced a chess database thing, and included a price and a web site, and a moderator went nuts. I think it was KarinsDad. He claimed that any ad met the "flagrant commercial exhortation" test. It's a continuum issue, obviously. 0 is defined as wrong and 10 is defined as right, 1 is almost certainly wrong, and 9 is almost certainly right, but somewhere between 4 and 6 it becomes a matter of opinion as to whether it is wrong or right. bruce
