Good Afternoon to you all...

We have just caught the second SPAM attempt to our mailing lists
today.  Both were from existing subscribers.  Both individuals have
been kicked and banned from these mailing lists.   We do this to
insure that you never receive anything from our lists except On Topic
posts...   properly formatted.

We also apologize if you receive a SPAM message from one of these
former subscribers by private Email.  We also have discovered that
he has been farming Email addresses from the lists and then sending
private SPAM messages in mass to those people who have recently
posted to the lists.   We are taking steps to deal with him on a more
severe basis.  He seems to be working alone, so this should be easily
rectified.

Just so you understand:

SPAM is any advertisement sent to you by Email, much like junk mail
you receive in your "snail-mail" mailbox.  We go to extremes to stop
in and we will never allow it to be posted to the lists.

Thank you for your understanding...

Bob Wright  -  List Owner
