I've got to disagree with you here - I think Jenny's book is perfectly
relevant to the situation at hand, plus she also included a number of
other useful resources.  If she had been responding to a general
question with "You can find the answer to that in my book...," I'd
agree with you.  But since the question was specifically asking for
books, websites, and other information, I think her post was perfectly
okay.  Should she be disqualified from recommending the book just
because she wrote it?  I don't think so.

Now if you had wanted to say something about the fact that she quoted
the entire digest and didn't trim her quotes, then we'd have been in
perfect agreement.
