more histrionics from anonymous. it seems to be directed at turgan's opinion "..I believe those sponsored posts should be flagged up.." so back tracking to d*s's first posts in august 2004 we find the following :

the post of 9/22/04 includes an initial flag as follows: "SHAMELESS SELF PROMO [utensilo*vitra] yeah i work for them, so what? you wanna start somethin? dorthea becker's chrome organizer is perfect. i don't care if it's cheating, i'm promoting it anyway. ha."

the two posts with vitra (linked) mentions on 9/27/04 are not flagged.

the 10/20/04 post on vitra's george nelson table clocks does not have a flag.

the vitra (linked) mention of 10/26/04 does not have a flag.

the 11/1/04 post has a flagged mention : "do check out the signage for the seattle public library...reminds me of vitra's logo....ahh...day job."

the 11/19/04 post on fake nelson clocks has a disconnected bonus flag : "KNOCK OFFS FOR EVERYONE [fake nelson clock*urbanoutfitters.com] yeah, i know this is sacrilegious, seeing as i work for the original one's manufacturer....but i'm poor and i like it!"

another flag on the 11/22/04 post on vitra's morrison corkseats : "...but if you have any questions you can email me (remember? day job?)."

and finally a flagged mention on 12/9/04 : "...not just because she came to our vitra party last night, which was a-mazing)."

i find this issue to be mostly a nonstarter which the anonymous commenter attempts to control with bluster and to the exclusion of addressing all the other points raised here.
