I, too, can easily delete unwanted e-mail... but this is news. Would you care to explain why you have posted exactly that which you objected to receiving via e-mail? If you didn't want to read it, and you truly believe it violates net.guidelines, why do you perpetuate it? Or do you secretly get a cut from Global's sales? Complaining is one thing. Shipping the very object you're complaining about around the world is quite another. > Thank you for your consideration, And you, for yours in the future. -- Roy M.
