[TowerTalk] Spammed by Tea Party mailing from M2

[Dino Darling]

Mike's stock just went up (if it could get any higher than it is
already) with me!

However, I doubt that Mike would use his company's e-mail list in this
manner.

I was disappointed to receive an unsolicited mass-emailing last night
forwarded from Mike Staal, K6MYC of m2inc.com (addressed to Ken Holladay
K6HCP, but apparently bcc’d to me and others), re “Prop 106 AZ: How
to beat
Obamacare in Arizona” – a mailing directed to "Tea Party leaders,
conservative activists, and bloggers," with which I won’t further
clutter
this list.

I would suggest vendors think twice (and more) about using their lists
of
ham- (and worse, antenna-) related email addresses to engage in
political
advocacy. It certainly took Mike’s company down a notch in my
estimation
(and would have done so regardless of my political leanings).

Sorry for burdening the list with this only peripherally antenna-related
post, but by highlighting such conduct, perhaps its use might be
attenuated…

73,
