The only thing that surprises me is how honest they are about selling your information.

A paraphrase: "Yeah, we do it. You can ask us nicely to stop, and we'll probably listen. If we've already sold it to other entities, that's your problem now, not ours. Tough luck."

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

e-mail lists are the lifeblood of any company doing business on the internet, just as regular mail lists were before the electronic age. Businesses regularly trade or sell these lists to improve sales potential. There is absolutely nothing illegal or immoral about this, except if a company says it will not trade e-mails and then does so.

It is easy to avoid the inundation of unwanted e-mails by simply creating another e-mail account and using that one for all potential e-mail you wish to avoid.

Unlike snail mail, though, the consumer can easily avoid
