Thought on marketing...
Marketing is slightly creepy. The point of it marketing is to inform you so you can do something. Persuasion and thought-alteration on a mass level.

I am having to do it now to spread How to Stop Wildfire and get people to read it.
Does not mean I still don't find it slightly...unnerving.
