Oh Art. How cynical.

Just because someone sells a product that works does not mean their sole

purpose for sharing is money. do you think that Saul is only interested

in making a buck and that all his posts are purely monetarily motivated.

Probably 98% of the health informaton on the net is by people that are

selling stuff. And most of them are people who are selling what worked

for them and are eager to tell others what worked for them. I am

thankful for these people as I have learned, in a few years, what would

likely have taken me a life time otherwise.

For years before I was a 'retailer' I told people on a daily basis about

things that I was learning and benfitting from. Somewhere along the

line, after years of sending them to the local heath food store, I

thought to myself that I should be selling them the product myself. And

so I started carrying things that worked for me. I have been doing it

every since.

But my motivation back then, before I ever sold anything, was the same

as it is now. To help people. And I know Sharon and I know her heart

is similar. Sorry if it seems like just a sales pitch to you. On the

lists I moderate I welcome sales pitches because I don't want someone

lurking with great information, afraid to share it because someone will

call them a spammer. I only require that they share personal

information and don't just say heres a link buy this. And I also

would rather give a list member my money than to send it elsewhere, so I

always want to know who is carrying what. That's just my take on it.

Cynical? I doubt it, at least I didn't take it that way.

Totally agree that true motivation is for the most part not able to be

determined.

I also agree with the marketing " feel " ... primarily because of the

acute lack of solidly based claims. Professional marketing relies on

scientifically/academically based support. When science or academia is

in error, our community tends to lash out rather than properly

addressing and proving what we know or believe to be true. We really

are our own worst enemy!

And there are a lot of hucksters out there (not necessarily on this list

.... or maybe so)!!
