And it doesn't help when "The National Association of Direct E-mail
Marketers" (well, it's something like that) exists, pushing the notion that
by the existance of your e-mail address on a commercial web site, you have
granted permission to recive such e-mail and it is no longer solicited.
But wait a second, aren't DejaNews and Whowhere.com commercial sites? Give
me a break.
Now I was checking out some of the sites on Yahoo's Junk E-mail page and
came across the following.

Broadcast Fax and Junk Email is illegal. Under United States Public Law
103-414 Section 303(a)(11), it is unlawful "to use any telephone facsimile
machine, computer, or other device to send an unsolicited advertisement."
