Re: tlug: spam

[Michael Chiu <mchiu@example.com>]

Hey!  At least that's not as bad as receiving the XXX ones... I get ones
where women tell me that they had a wonderful time talking with me on
online chat the other night... funny... I don't think I have ever been
on a XXX online chat site, let alone an online chat site to begin
with...

I've gotten the one about re-doing the web page... hmm... since when did
I become the webmaster of my company's webpage?  

I figure that people who send out spam are pretty dishonest to begin
with, as the whole issue of spreading out spam is pretty unethical to
begin with... 

Just my 2 cents...
