Chris,

This is the third advertisement I have received from you since I subscribed to
techdiver. Whilst I appreciate any technical diving information from whatever
source, I really don't appreciate you touting your videos in this way. I think
net-heads call this "spamming" (trawling newslist messages for 'new' mail IDs).
In UK (where I received you previous advertisements) we call it 'junk e-mail'.
Both are equivalent terms for the same annoying phenomenon,
