I am looking for a quality rss feed for a supplier of building
materials. Their focus is on the professional contractor. Current
relevant content would include anything related to Fannie Mae,
lumber prices, foreclosures, overall US economy. This company is
located in eastern NC, USA,
any rss feed very relevant to this area would be great.  Of course low
cost or a free feed.

I'm beginning to wonder if these repeated, no content, posts by 'the
stuck-o company are simply just spam... Does anyone see any value in
them? If no one does, it should be easy to get this stopped...

My posting was legitimate, I'm looking for a good quality RSS feed.
I am in no way related to the business that posted their website.

He didn't reply to your post, he replied to DA's post, which certainly
looks like spam.

Guys, I don't get it:

Someone asks in alt.building.construction  for an RSS feed related to
building industry. What can be more related then that the RSS of
alt.building.construction itself? Why do you label my post as spam all of
a sudden?

It "looks" like spam. Three links in your post to the same site and a
borked sig. And you didn't bother to include any message at all. It
"looks" like spam.

because there are an excessive number of posts touting the stuck-o
company (intentionally spelled that way to avoid providing any
promotional benefits...)

Lose the commercial ads for the company, and eliminate the empty posts
that just promote the company, and then it is not spam.
