   I most often ride but on a recent day I drove.

	I was very tempted to drop a rider ahead of her requested 14th street stop because she used the fact that I was conversing with the other passenger as an opening to promote her home business.

	I tried to politely decline but that was not the end of it.

	I won't flame using her name or the business name but it is VERY tempting--and she did provide her business card.

	No Thank You.

	This is similar to the incident of folks handing out advertising for their evangelical church that offended the Mormon lady. Guess there is an appropriate time and place to push one's wares. [;)]
