What is all the brew-haha over the new magazine? There is NOTHING wrong with DMC Houston selling itself. Would you rather they hide behind a club or organizations as most of you feel is the case with DOA? There is no pretense here folks...."Hi we are DMC Houston, this is our magazine, if you like it subscribe, if you don't like it, thanks for checking it out" What the hell is wrong with that? I am blown away at this thread as we are always reading negative threads about other organizations and vendors. How can anyone consider this magazine "conflict of interest"? Do you have any clue as to what you are talking about? How can you even say that? It would be a conflict of interest if DMC Houston started a club like the DOA but hid the fact that they are the real force behind it. There is NO conflict of interest here. Don't try to read into something that just isn't there. Don't taint the enjoyment that most of us got from this magazine. Why would DMC Houston want to have advertising from other vendors? The only reason for selling advertising in a magazine is to make money. If DMC Houston can publish this without having to deal with the headache of selling ad space what's wrong with that? The magazine would still be a publication for DMC Houston, it's products and services. If you feel that this is stuff that they should pay for as a part of doing business then don't subscribe but don't try to twist this into something that it's not. Tom Watkins #005732
