I've lost count of the number of messages that include: "You have received this message because you expressed an interest in hearing from us. We never send unsolicited messages. To be removed from future mailings..." That disclaimer obviously lies twice - I never expressed such an interest, and they ALWAYS send unsolicited messages. Why would I think that they're legitimately not going to contact me in the future? -- Dave Salovesh RAM Associates, Inc.
