[NSRCA-discussion] List rules... ??

[Ron Lockhart]

We benefit from short focused posts on availability of some difficult to
find product/part, substitute parts, reference to a part to solve problems,
answers to questions, etc.  Be that from a sponsored pilot, service company,
cottage supplier, etc.

Do we need to ask NSRCA leadership for an interpretation or re-write of the
Policy to establish a "Balance" of OK information as opposed to abuse of the
list
by advertisers?  If this is a problem, then maybe so.  Ive not seen a
problem.
