NOTE to authors of articles and blogs: been getting complaints here and there from authors of articles/blogs who send me their links. I guess they didn't read below in my guidelines, which are there to stop such email, but......I am under NO obligation to post ANYTHING sent to me, news, rumors, blogs, articles links...etc. If it seems different, original, interesting, clear and decently written...I will CONSIDER it. I do not post a blog link just because someone reads a PR and posts info from that PR. Or if someone gathers a bunch of news from real newspaper / news site and makes a blog or notes section - do NOT expect me to link it. I check about 100 news/newspaper/magazine/nascar sites a day for article links. I get about 30-45 email requests [may use 15-20 of them]. I will NOT respond telling anyone why I didn't use something sent to me, just assume I didn't think it was right for the site. Many sites posted here, I have a good working relationship with them and they get the benefit of the doubt, newbies do not until I see how they post and what their agenda may be. This is not a message board/forum/fan page, where anyone can post and it is no one's right but my own to post something on the site or this page. Thanks and happy posting....
