I got a letter once from the office of Ted Kennedy, who I had never written to. It was thanking me for my letter regarding his stance on the Contras. All I could think of was I had signed a petition a couple of months prior to that, and those people must have taken those signatures and attached each name to a letter. That's downright sneaky! I made the mistake of sending Ted Kennedy an e-mail commenting on his performance during the Alito hearings. That resulted in my e-mail being put on his e-mail list, and I started getting all sorts of nonsense from his office. I added the address to my spam filter, which now eliminates the noxious screed before it hits my in-box.
