Large Yahoo ads plonk in middle of posts!

[Kirby Urner]

I doesn't seem to have spread to mirror of comp.lang.python ,
archived at Yahoo, but another Yahoo group to which I subscribe
now features very large rectangular (not banner) ads right 
in the text of the post.  

Not around the edges.  Right there in the *body* of the post.  
So if someone is being quoted, it all gets shoved over to 
the right to change the formatting of the text.  

Paradoxically, you have to ask for the source view to get 
the original formatting.  The "formatted view" is the one
in which formatting has been destroyed by the injection of
alien material.

If you want to see what I mean, check:

for an example.

Is the Python mirror going to have this "feature" soon?

I realize the Terms of Service allow Yahoo to show ads, but 
that this means tolerating large ads in the middle of our own
posts pushes the envelope to a new low standard.  It's big 
news in my opinion.  It merits mention on Slash-dot.
