This is exactly what George said to me when I approached him about whether I could be allowed to mention *Narrowboat Dreams* (Published by Summersdale at £7.99, avaiilable online, at all good bookshops or signed, directly from the author). He said, 'I think people would like to be told about this.' However, he is in a position to decided what the 'majority' might or might not like to be told. Leave that decision to anyone with a product to sell and anarchy will result. Simple, eh? Ask George. That has been the rule thus far. That is why I am asking whether that rule has changed. Whether Laurence put his subject heading in capitals or not seems neither here not there to me, but no doubt you'll enlighten me as to why this threatens the very nature of the list which I believe unapproved advertising would do.
