Hi Josh,


    | My question is... Why do we take such offense to
    | unsolicited email and
    | get so passionate about it being "disgusting" and
    | "unethical" when it


Because I get 300 spam emails a day and it does get old hitting the
delete button. As though this were not enough, some of these emails will
also send virii or webbugs.

Btw, you assume that physical (offline) spam email is acceptable. It
isn't and there are laws in all countries (to varying degrees of course)
against cold-calling. That it exists does not make it ok.

My 20 yen,
