RE: UKNM: Tell me it's not SPAM

[?]

Hello its

Rich_BaileyYahoo [dot] com

  Jude (a friend in the same company) sent me

this which he found on a US site (HE DID NOT WRITE IT) ..."*************


The passage of a landmark anti-Spam bill by the U.S. House of

Representatives by a vote of 427 to 1 left me with one major question. Who

the heck was that one Congressman who voted against it?


It ends up it was Texas Republican Ron Paul (http://www.house.gov/paul/).

Wow -- someone who actually likes Spam! I guess that means we're all welcome

to email him at

rep [dot] paulmail [dot] house [dot] gov

 (even though he doesn't publish it

on his website) to tell him what we think about that vote.


Heck, while we're at it, I'm sure he'd love to hear about our business

opportunities, ponzi schemes, environmental causes, get-rich-quick schemes

and great consumer products :)

"************


So I wrote this...******

"I like Spam."*******


And got this reply...************

Questions

1.) Do you think I sent him Spam?

2.)Do you think that was fair?

3.)Does anyone think that was the real e-mail address?


Me personal view is that I like Spam sometimes.  It is like the pizza offers

you get through the door in my eyes,  9 times out of ten its no use and then

just once in a while bang! Its just right and they deliver (sits back and

waits for the hate mail).  In the really world of snail mail royal mail send

out millions and millions letters each year to people who hate junk mail.

This mail  to be a waists trees and energy resources where as targeted Spam

is a one second download.  Maybe it is the paper mail that needs action and

the Spam which needs clear rules.
