@allenf1963 that's outrageous and insulting. This is a forum where members discuss audio products. Not cloud formations and swimming techniques. As a result, they will communicate by mentioning those products and include links to their web sites. Why it would violate anything (non-existing rule), harm audiogon's interests is beyond me.
I let my blood pressure go through the roof many times arguing about moderation. It's only getting worse. Unpredictable, illogical, not conducive to anything healthy and sane.
