I don't care what delusion you are under. This
is unsolicited spam. I've heard that it is illegal
in the state of California --- which is my state of
residence and where I'm sitting as I recieve this.

I'll be forwarding this along to by district attorney's
office (once I dig up their e-mail address).

Whoop-de-doo! You're a "real corporation." That
certainly doesn't preclude the likelihood that you are
lying, thieving scumbags with no regards for courtesy
or custom.

<BLOCKQUOTE>
You're clearly unethical. You KNOW that this message
is unwelcome to most of your recipients and you sent it
anyway. Do not respond to this mail.
