[BioC] 2 Courses: (1) R/Splus Advanced Programming - San Francisco- (2) Data Mining: Practical Tools and Techniques in R/Splus- Salt Lake City

[STKH (Steen Krogsgaard)]

Dear Sue,

I think you conveniently forgot to mention the price for the courses. I
haven't been able to find any pricing information on your web site
either. I must admit that it makes me slightly annoyed that I have to
email you to get the price, to me it indicates some degree of shadyness.
I suggest you put your prices out in the open so I don't have to put a
lot of effort into evaluating if I think your courses are worth it.
Usually I loose all interest in product where I can't easily see the
price, and I'm sure that many of your potential customers agree with me
on this.

I also think you forgot to indicate in the subject line that this is a
commercial post. I must admit that after re-reading the posting guide I
can't find any guidelines about how to indicate commercial posts, but in
my mind it should be indicated in the subject line out of common
deciency.

Of course I could be mistaken in that your courses are actually free of
charge - in that case you have my apologies.

Best regards
Steen Krogsgaard
