For the past two years, I have posted Diplomacy game opening messages 
to rec.games.pbm which contain an advertisement for the game 
Diplomacy.  There have been zero complaints.  So obviously, some 
commercials are O.K. on Usenet.  In fact, ne.housing is basically a 
commericals only collection.  
 
Also, what are the differences between a profit and non-profit 
organization?  I know that Elizabeth Dole gets $200,000 working for 
the Red Cross, so there don't seem to be any salary limitations 
involved.  What are the restrictions placed on non-profit 
organizations?  Also do non-profits have to pay taxes on their 
investment income?  Not having to pay would be a big plus when you 
compound interest over decades or possibly centuries.
