Karl,
I usually don't reply to topics lth but I'd like to interveen 
here this that.


First of all, I'm sorry, but I do not see your point here.

This is not a  message that Helga wanted to send someone 
personally, this must just be something that she thinks that we, 
blind students, are interested in, as RJ said.

It would be extremely cumbersome to write everyone off list to 
share this information, as you say, don't you think?
Personally, I think that anything that is blindness-related 
belongs here so that we students can exceed our expectations even 
further.  Helga has pointed out in her first message here that 
blind people should get involved in networking and 
entrepenourship.

However Karl, I do agree with you that Bill's post about this 
being a "pyramid scheme" was just spam.
Also Bill, I'm not trying to be rude, I just want to let you know 
that you should think about the positive and negative benefits of 
something before posting a negative comment about it.

Thanks,

Sami.

RJ,

Helga like you and anyone else can share whatever she wants with
her friends, but this is a listserve for discussing issues having
to do with being a blind student not a social networking site or
a bulletin board for posting job opportunities.  Both of those
things exist for people who are interested in them, but this is
not the place.  I've only been on this list for a couple months,
but it's incredibly frustrating to have to read through people's
personal messages to each other and then on top of it to be
spammed about a pyramid scheme.  Thank you Sean for trying to
hold the line!

Best,
Karl

So you're saying that a blind person Helga, who is getting out
there and
getting active, can't share with us other blind people what she
is wanting
to do? Have we become so narrow minded, that we do not take other
Ideas into
account? Dr.  RJ Sandefur

 Where else would one promote a business to blind people who are
looking
 for
 an opportunity? How about all the jobs that are listed; what is
the
 difference?  With the "seventy percent unemployment rate,,"
wouldn't a
 business opportunity, essentially a job, be welcomed provided
that the
 individual does not over do it?  I'm just curious; because the
job
 opportunities probably shouldn't be listed either, even though I
would
 soarly  dislike that.

 Hi all,

 Let's please remember that this list has a purpose.  Promoting
our home
 businesses that have absolutely nothing to do with blindness is
not it.  We
 are pretty flexible about what is discussed here, but let's
please avoid
 posting solicitations and promotions like this.

 Thanks,

 Sean
