I agree with the policy. There are laws governing advertising in print
media, radio, TV, and other ways of advertising. There are specific
rules and laws governing advertising by or for a non-profit
organization. I think the AHS' policy on the e-mail robin is good. I
think they are just trying to ensure the round-robins remains true to
the AHS' goals. And though the hosta-open is not affiliated with the
AHS, we all must agree (I hope) we don't want to see entire catalog
offerings posted.
