Brisbane wine warehouse sale Fri and Sat.

snipped

Brisbane is hardly "minutes away from San Fransico". Brisbane happens to be a few hours plane flight from Melbourne. Please be aware that this is an international news groupd and don't be parochial. Oh, and its not good form to advertise on newsgroups.

Ron,

I don't want to be a pooper, but:

Winebuys.com's Warehouse Outlet is located in Brisbane, California -- just minutes south of San Francisco, minutes north of SFO, and an hour or so from California's world-famous Wine Country.

Winebuys.com Warehouse Outlet

Sorry. There's a Melbourne in Florida too I think.

Mat.

The traditional, possibly more constructive advice for this situation, for very many years, has been to make use of the "distribution" field when posting the news article. That has been used commonly in the past to limit its geographical distribution. (For many years the SF Bay Area was designated "ba" there.) As I haven't tried it lately, I'll leave it to someone to comment from recent experience, if any.

I really have no affiliation with the business. I originally thought to post in only ba.food, but thought to include the wine newsgroup because of the topic.

I should have listened to my inner voice that was crying "do not crosspost," but I threw caution to the wind.

Sorry! Karen

Local source pointed out that distribution limits, though provided for in article format, are ineffective in recent years (of the post-HTML newsgroup world).

I am still trying to make amends for doing the same thing Ron Lel did, in the past. An advertisement appeared internationally, giving only local phone numbers in New Jersey (US):

SKIS 4/SALE

and I responded, more or less like Ron Lel. The ad is still there, in the archives, along with my response (21 years ago exactly).

As a further note, here in the US we have named many places to honor those elsewhere. A few offhand examples from memory are New Jersey, New York, New London, Boston, Plymouth, Syracuse, Ithaca, New Orleans, New Iberia (Louisiana), Athens (Georgia), Canton (Ohio), Paris (Texas), Vienna (Virginia), Moscow (Idaho), Melbourne (Florida), and Brisbane (California). These namings betoken a nontrivial element of respect.

Cheers -- Max
