Xcuse me Marilyn, If you want I can forward your E-Mail address to a dozen web sites that will pay me for it & your in-box will have about 150 unsolicited E-mails everyday!!!! I DID NOT ASK DAVE DEWITT NOR DID I SIGN UP TO RECEIVE HIS NEWSLETTER, ERGO __SPAM__!! Please forgive my passion as I also have a touch of Latino in my Heinz 57 Varieties. Spam is unsolicited/unrequested E-mail in my in box. Wheater I want/like/have interest in it is not the point!!!! I did not ask a credit card company to call me as I eat my first Red Savina/I did not ask some politician to call me for an opinion as my child takes his first steps & I surely did not ASK some real estate co. to call me for a "Free Appraisal" on a home I have no interest in selling. BTW I have been to Dave's site a number of times & find it interesting & informative!!! I learned more about the elusive TEZPUR Chile there than anywhere else. BUT IF I WANT HIS NEWSLETTER I WOULD HAVE SIGNED UP FOR IT WHILE I WAS THERE!!!!!!!!!!
