I have to agree with you Ariel, what i see most are marketing experts
marketing to other marketing experts in most lists, not this one of
course. ;-)

Another example of the fact there are too may experts is this example.
Thought we would search for some good ezines to run ads in for retail
selling. while we found a few, most were of the genre that advertise
100.00 to send to 250,000 double opt-in subscribers. It turns out you
are paying a fee to be run in the ezines of a group of ezines, the topic
of all these ezines??? "How to market" tips etc. sent to other
marketing people no doubt.

It becomes almost comical after a bit. I live in Canada, where we had
for the past 10 years a French speaking prime minister whose english was
fair at best. He was asked one day on a issue, "What is the proof"? ,
referring to claim made by him that day in parliament, being a good
politician but a terrible english speaker his reply,
" The proof is the proof, is the proof, and if the proof is proven,
then is is the proven proof".

Yes he actually said that:-) I suppose repetition is the idea , so the
question Ariel makes and I concur with is,
"What is marketing?" and the answer of course is, "if i market to
another marketer, and the marketed marketing is bought, then i am a
marketing marketer"
please see the humor:-)
