ETA: Is it possible that you’re confusing AdWords with AdSense? Perhaps I should have made the difference clearer. AdWords is for advertising on Google search results, not placing banner ads on your site.
I think you’re mixing up AdWords (short textual advertisements on Google search result pages) with AdSense (advertisements on other sites, with Google mediating between advertisers and people with webpages).
[EDITED to add, for clarity: Ads on the SI’s sites would be AdSense ads (the SI offers advertising space and Google pays them). michaelcurzi is talking about ads in Google’s search results (Google offers advertising space and the SI pays). The two are almost exactly opposite.]
http://singinst.org/ and related sites don’t have ads, so huh?
Not sure why you believe that. Louie Helm has been managing the account for a long time, and we show up on Spyfu for Less Wrong and SI’s homepage.

AdWords means adds for them, not adds on them.
