The difference is simple...if a new shill comes on the list and starts squawking about Product X, he's trying to make money. If I've been on the list for a few years and start squawking about Product X, it is likely that I was impressed by it and thought it might prove to be useful information for someone else in need of that sort of product. No matter what happens, *I* don't profit from the exchange, except perhaps if someone else tries it, likes it, and thinks me insightful and astute as a result. Not that this will happen, but I'm just sayin'...
