Do you people that are sending out these voluminous tomes
which appear to be coming off of the wire services realize
that there are sites that are getting and relaying this
stuff which have to pay precious money for their spiriling
phone bills for shipment of this stuff?

I imagine that you feel that you are doing a lot of people
a favor by sending this stuff out; it must be nice to be
able to get stuff from the wire services like that. But do
remember that we all don't work for the phone company and
some of us have to pay our phone bills.
