I guess I'm less easily annoyed, and the big X on my mail reader makes
short work of annoyance. The question is: are those who would benefit
from employment possibilities likely to read Tech or Talk? I, for one,
had never heard of Talk for years after I joined.

In any case, if the posts were to be entitled 'Employment Ad ...',
they could be filtered to /dev/null for those who are not interested.

I'll follow whatever rules we come up with.
