    3. This is not appropriate to this list. While it is ok to post titles with contact information if the item is related to Russell County, KY. I would likely allow materials dealing with Wayne and other counties from which Russell was created. This subscriber has been placed on moderation for the time. I will call subscribers attention to item 11 in the welcome message everyone receives when subscribing: "11. Advertising. Technically, RootsWeb has a "no commercial use" policy. Like all RootsWeb policies, though, the last thing that we want is for policy to get in the way of our doing genealogy. Therefore, the KYRUSSEL list will accept brief announcements of books and other resource material for sale that is specifically related to this county. Don't include prices and ordering info; just include a pointer to a URL, a commercial mailing list, or an e-mail address where the complete ordering information can be found. In case In case of doubt, send the message to the list custodian, gflanagan@adelphia.net, and I'll review it and forward it to the list if appropriate." Clearly this item violates that. Had it not mentioned price and ordering info [and imho rather expensive for a little under 200 pages - I wouldn't pay it] I might have allowed it since Russell was created from Wayne. But blatant spam, even genealogical spam, is not allowed. G. O'F. -- G.
