E-Mails sometimes already have paid advertisements attached.
There is another list that I am on that has one of those
pay per clicks attached to the e-mails.
Others are run or supported or carried by companies
like a hospital, a magazine or like this list
by AOL which owns Time/Warner and Netscape among
others.
If you do not think that the company monitors the list
or has list monitors of one type or another Especially
on what amounts to a news list like this one.
The internet is supported by advertising -
these may be called e-MAILs but they are
no more mail then checking out a changing web page.
Person to Person (car, plane, ect)
traveling to check out stores and their advertisements
Mail with signatures that "can" not be changed
Phone with the person's voice that you recognize
electronic communication
Does an e-mail replace a letter?
Does a Thank You phone call replace a Thank You note?
Does a Thank You note replace a gift?
Does a Gift replace the time spent delivering it in person?
how much is your time worth and the person you are Thanking?
If this is classed the same as a letter or otherwise it would
prove that America has lost it's basic manners and worth.

Any person can stand adversity,
The true test is to give a person power.
If you treat a relationship as if you are the only one in it, eventually
you will be.
Atrocities happen when the people about you -
start considering you surplus.
"I tolerate with the utmost latitude the right of
others to differ from me in opinion"
---- Thomas Jefferson <br><br>
My Grandfather told me there are two kinds of people:
those who do the work and
those who take the credit.
He told me to be in the first group -
there is less competition there. -

CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
