Dont know about rest of the Garden Group but I was annoyed by all the
auction items that have been posted on the gardening news group. I would
prefer they not be posted here.

Just my opinion.

It's clearly inappropriate to post "forsale" or "for auction" post to
this group. It site isn't real clear, but I believe doing so is again
the auction site's user agreement. You can report this sort of abuse
to upport.

I suggest lots of feedback to I may also report
individual auctions to Paypal if they indicate they accept that
payment method. You may also want to suggest that your ISP block post
from from them.

WooHoo! Here's their reply that they sent just a couple of minutes later.


We are aware that this has happened -
It was done by mistake by someone who thought they were genuinely trying
to help.

I can assure you this will never happen again and the matter has been
dealt with.

These items were posted yesterday - and the issue dealt with then also.

We apologise .... Was a genuine mistake by someone who was trying to
help us..

Jan- You are quite right. Auctions items should not be listed on a gardening
site! I too would prefer not to find them there. If there are any more of us
out there who feel the same way (and I'm very sure that there are) e-mail
Austin Gardening and let them know. Steph

Give 'em hell Dewitt!

BTW, find any deer in your back yard lately?

Now, now, don't start giving away my stories! Hardly anybody can
even see the scar anymore.

Nope, no deer in my yard lately, though it sure seems that deer aren't
getting along with motor vehicles here in Austin well lately. There
was a motorcycle in the ditch near a dead deer on 360 on Saturday.
Two police cars were nearby with lights flashing. Anybody know if
what I expect happened did?
