I wouldn't consider one text-link-ad as surrounding the post. Maybe others would...go figure.
The post is actually 109 words, more than a third of the Gettysburg Address - nearly half. Thank goodness Lincoln didn't post his speech here...I can imagine the comments :-)
The message is simple, no one cares about your product or service - that's the biggest shortcoming of hi-tech companies, they think their speeds-feeds-features-functionality matter. They don't. What matters is what you can do with them and what you do for your customers. In the case of selling to businesses, it's what you do to enable them to do for their customers - internal and external. Your product or service is irrelevant beyond its ability to achieve something of value worth paying for.
