Apparently, it is a write-only database. :(
[I'll probably now get yet more unsolicited garbage
in my mailbox.]
Up until now, I have been getting a broken record every
week or so from "Chancellor Group" which leads off
"I just got wind that Chancellor Group has reported
big quarterly earnings..." What a surprise! They
just got wind of it for the 8th week!? These guys
are on the ball. I guess I'm not supposed to notice
that Chancellor Group itself is telling me that
it just "got wind" of its awe-inspiring earnings.
More like they just broke wind.
If this is the commerce of the future, I'll be moving
to a tiny island in the Pacific where they haven't
heard of e-mail, television, fax machines, pagers,
or any of these other "conveniences" of terminally
connected modern life! Then, they can make money off of me
the old fashioned way: earrrrrrrrn it.
