    I agree. If I remember right, AOL used to sell their customer's email addresses. Several years later, they started blocking spam. IMHO, some of the higher ups in AOL are very good at doing things with an eye toward making a fast buck without thinking through the consequences, then they have to answer to their customers for the fallout. Or I could just have a very low opinion of AOL...
