of Ed's readers make the ads meaningless. Secondly, they aren't pop up ads, they are designed as part of Ed's page specifically. Granted, they're parsing of Ed's text may suck in terms what ads they present, but still... I make it a point to NEVER click an ad and don't allow ads to affect my shopping habits, the same should go for everyone, even the dumb. You will never get rid of ads, it's sickening yes, but advertising is everywhere and it's out of control. The only hope is to let these companies advertised know WHY you aren't doing business with them, otherwise the ad explosion will continue....
