I think that women used to send envelopes full of pepper to prominent
M.C.P.'s at some point in the women's movement.  I think the practice
dates back to Margaret Sanger, but I'm not sure.  Anyway, it seems
like a good way of disposing of those business reply envelopes, and 
the person opening it gets the idea you don't appreciate it.  I'm
not sure this is legal, though -- I've never done it myself.  I've
found that the best way for me to handle junk mail is just to toss
it in the laundry room wastebasket, so it never makes it into my 
apartment.
