Why would we mind? You're just being a missionary of sorts, spreading the word of Big Blue. I talk it up at my club all the time ... and also on those (very) few occasions when I've gone up to Sarasota (84.77 miles) to my LHS to pick up a boxload of needed items (I always make the trip a worthwhile one.) They know I come a couple miles to see them (and usually an hour and 40-some minutes of driving) and I'm in no mood to pick up a couple items and head on out the door ... they pull up a stool and allow me to sit and have a cup of java and shoot the breeze for a bit before I head home. I always talk about the "family atmosphere," the friendly banter, the helpful photo tutorials and the great layouts. I'm going to try to print out some of those Big Blue "business cards" to hand out to folks.
You shouldn't feel bad about "spreading the word," and I doubt anyone here would voice an objection to a little verbal advertising!
