But that doesn't help you to get your message out about your hotel. So what's left to you besides having the URL as part of your SIG file, and what better way to get your SIG file out there than to become the de facto most prolific poster in aviation related newsgroups. That's smart marketing Jay and your not the only person in the world who practices that sort of newsgroup marketing. But please don't be arrogant and play dumb that some people in those groups don't truly understand what your ulterior motives are. Just the other day you started posting text messages with links in the aviation binary newsgroup regarding your new multi-media clips. That's not a multi-media newsgroup and the regulars there want to see contributors POSTING pictures not posting links to a commercial site for an aviation themed hotel. |

But please don't be arrogant and play dumb that some people in those groups don't truly understand what your ulterior motives are. "Ulterior"? That's a fairly strong statement with no basis in presented fact. Jay contributes here, unlike some other people. His posts have sufficient utility that they're seen. More, his posts generate non-flaming replies, further demonstrating the utility of those posts. Can you say the same? Jay's signatures are aviation-related, but there's no mandate for this. A signature can be whatever the user wants. As Jay is following the standard for such things, anyone motivated to tell their newsreader to ignore signatures would never see it. Just the other day you started posting text messages with links in the aviation binary newsgroup regarding your new multi-media clips. That's not a multi-media newsgroup and the regulars there want to see contributors POSTING pictures not posting links to a commercial site for an aviation themed hotel. Oh my God...Jay is saving bandwidth by posting links instead of entire binaries? What is the world coming too? Doesn't he realize that he pays for the "link" bandwidth, while he'd be using other people's bandwidth if he posted the entire file? Jay, what type of weird-o are you, failing to freeload on the USENET infrastructure? - Andrew |

I'll bet pilots, especially pilots who also read these few newsgroups, are a tiny fraction of Jay's clientel. Jay is a prolific poster 'cause he: - has too much energy - has too much time - doesn't have a life - all of the above His posts are usually entertaining, sometimes ignorant but rarely arrogant. He's definitely a positive element of these groups so who cares if we know all about his Inn? I stopped there once, it was the best motel I stayed at on my journey. |

- has too much energy
- has too much time - doesn't have a life - all of the above Hey -- it's February in Iowa. How much of a life can I have? :-) Actually, my life is incredibly full, between family, flying, and the business. 18 hour days are the norm. I'm just a fast typist, and I don't need much sleep. His posts are usually entertaining, sometimes ignorant but rarely arrogant. He's definitely a positive element of these groups so who cares if we know all about his Inn? I stopped there once, it was the best motel I stayed at on my journey. Boy, talk about "damned with faint praise"... ;-) Hell, if it wasn't for input from a lot of you guys (and gals) we probably wouldn't have bought the inn. This group has, in many ways, helped to create our hotel. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
