Odd. You'd think that an outfit like IBM would know better than to spam.

Until a while ago they were spamming me relentlessly for their
DeveloperWorks program, whatever that is, probably because I used to
participate in a mailing list devoted to a Borland development product.
Haven't seen any for a while now - they must have listwashed me.
