A couple of people have raised important points which are touched on by
Anthro-l's "statement of being"... Bulk-mailings are not welcome.
Posting of info to the list is welcome. Posting of ads which are
not relevant to the list are not welcome. Posting of info about a book
which is a relevant or valuable source of info which happens to be
written by the poster are fine. But posting of an ad about a book
with price and order info is basically a bulk mailing of an ad...

The policy is to send the info the the listowners so they can counsel
the poster on how to be best present the info so it does offend the
list.
