I wonder which direction companies will go now.  If telemarketing is 
reduced and spam is eliminated, then does that mean that these guys
will go back to sending paper out?  I dunno about you, but that does 
concern me, as even now there are weeks where Im out of space in 
the pertinent trash containers.  Im hoping that the cost of it will be 
prohibitive.  Who knows tho.
