I get (let's hypothesize) ACLU mailings. The ACLU list begets the Greenpeace list. I know that the junk mailer provides plausible deniability for both sides, but if I never was on the ACLU list, I'd never see the Greenpeace mailings. One organization has given their mailing list to the other, even if a middleman company puts the mailings together. -- Bob Bob Izenberg cs.utexas.edu!dogface!bei [ ] "So young, so bad...
