Are you sure those firms Spam, Bert? There's a Spam company with an address in Cheyenne that uses all sorts of brand names to promote its real products, but I doubt that legitimate firms would find value in Spam. I tried to check the address in Cheyenne - looks like it might be just a mail drop, if that.

I was surprised to get Spam from the University of Phoenix - apparently, the Cheyenne firm was soliciting on their behalf.

One other thing about the Cheyenne firm - thir e-mails are a single graphic that's a clickable link. Takes a hell of a long time to download when my dialup connection is sluggish.
