on 3/19/2008 HI SIRLLADNAR, THIS IDEA "MIGHT" BE A LITTLE EXTREME,BUT I THINK THATS EXACTLY HOW WE MUST RESPOND TO THESE COMPANIES THAT SIMPLY REFUSE TO QUIT SENDING US ALL THIS JUNK IN THE MAIL. I HAVE ASK SO MANY TIMES TO GET OFF MAILING LISTS, TO NO AVAIL. THINK OF ALL THE I.D. THIEF THAT GOES ON DUE TO ALL THE CREDIT CARD OFFERS! MAYBE WE COULD HAVE A "MAIL IT ALL BACK TO THEM" DAY! YA, I LIKE THE IDEA, THANKS SIR...DUSTY
