why not do like the phone book:

A few Blue dogear pages in front of MA for the Fed Req garbage
The main MA with articles, columns, and fun stuff.
Some Yellow dogear pages after the main for all the pretty pictures of ARFs & brushlessmotors for sale

Seperate but equal, for now keep the same ratio of ads-content-FedReq, just seperate it so we can see what is what, and I dont have to put up with 4.75 pages of ArfAds breaking up a construction article (target audience? Arf ads in a build article?)

We are not here to serve the Advertizers, and apparently MA is not interested in runing financially sound, so cram the adds to the back. If the Advertizers dont like it, what is the worst that can happen, MA will run REDer? A $1mil loss will be a $1.5mil loss?
