   I haven't gotten anything from the Chancellor Group since I replied
   with "unsubscribe" to both the spam address and their postmaster, saying
   that if I got any more of these, I was going to inform the SEC.

   It's only been a month since then, so I'm not sure I'm really off their
   list.  Anyone have an address for the Securities and Exchange Commission?

   Cap.
