Come on, Dave,
        It was clarified long ago that there is no official "rule" against
more than 1 ad per week - that was "a gentlemen's agreement" and
though Chicago Steve has been called many names, I don't remember
anyone ever accusing him of being a "gentleman."
        Best wishes, Michael
PS: As for "Chaos" on the list - that's ALWAYS been  what this list
is - chaotic - nearly, dare I say, anarchistic? The one exception is Art's
list of rules. If people chronically and/or blatantly ignore them, Art
suspends or even bans them. Other than that, anarchy pretty much
manifests throughout the list.
