Well there you go. It is a law so spammers worldwide will quickly modify their email lists to ensure you have given them permission to hawk their wares on your SMS/MMS enabled device. :roll: Doesn't the government have something better to do? They'd have more success with a law allowing forest fires to burn for only 3 days. __________________ text sig
