I wrote that.

I did not write that text.  If you would kindly refrain using
a quoting style that makes it appear that I wrote things which
I did not write (in this case making it appear that I signed
my name in a way that I did not), I would appreciate it.

After looking at it again, I agree it's possible she's not a
shill.  Going against the shill idea, we have the fact that
she described a competing product in much more detail than a
shill would want to.  But supporting the shill idea is the
fact that this was crossposted to numerous newsgroups, one
of which is irrelevant, and she posted not one but TWO posts
that were full of multiple paragraphs of excitement about
the product.  Back on the other hand, going against the shill
idea is the fact that PrimoPDF seems to be freeware, a fact
I was not aware of since I don't keep up with Windows software.

So, I remain undecided on the shill issue.  Which is of course
what the "so it would appear" that I wrote was meant to convey.
