Barry,

 BM> I think OfficeMax/Office Depot sends out the occasion dollar or
 BM> percentage off e-mail coupon: sign up for their e-mails.  (Might be
 BM> thinking of some other promo.)

  I am a member of the rewards deal at Office Depot and Best Buy. I
looked last night, and I think there was a 13 port USB deal from
Office Depot, but it was out of stock. One was USB 2.0, but I'd rather
have USB 3.0 or later.

 BM> IMO posting an ad too often does the opposite of what is intended:
 BM> tends more to turn the potential customer away rather than attract.

  I want folks to logon because they WANT to...NOT because they have to.
In one of my ham radio applications, I noted info on the BBS...talk about
a shameless plug. <G>

 BM> Seems to have.  Did see him the day after: sort of sat at a short
 BM> distance looking rather sad and confused.  Hadn't seen his girlfriend
 BM> at all: LIS one day when he was almost constantly trying to fly through
 BM> the window she was on the railing maybe 10' away with that look of
 BM> resignation: "you're such an idiot!"

  I've wondered if the animal kingdom communicates like that.

 BM> Yes, please raise the seat before use!
 DS>   We aim to please...you aim, too, please. <G>

 BM> We aim to keep this place clean; your aim will help!

  True.
