Commercial products are a requirement in our profession.  Hence, a
solution using any product revealed to the group in an apporpriate
fashion should be welcome.  However, when anybody pointing out a
solution has a business/financial/commercial interest, it is imperative
to mention that affiliation.   David Gibbs, midrange-l keeper, makes
this very clear in his midrange-l guidelines sent at the beginning of
each month.  JMHO
