Maquoketa Valley Electric (In Iowa) said I sent them SPAM
Sent an email to Maquoketa Valley Electric (in Iowa) to ask them to consider no longer spending their advertising dollars on the local Sinclair station, which is KGAN in Cedar Rapids. I simply stated my views about the Sincalir situation. I was very polite, and did not mention either Kerry or Bush by name. When I returned home this evening and checked my inbox, there were 30+ emails telling me my address had been flagged as sending political SPAM, that it is illegal to send political SPAM, and not to send it anymore. Assholes. I have now blocked and filtered them, so hopefully I won't get anymore. So far, so good anyway.

2. They aren't my electric company
Thankfully. They would probably double my rates.
