Did you really need to send a Media Release to this list announce your
opinion here? Just stating it would have been fine. I've
understood lists like this one are to be corporate PR/marketing
free zones, and media releases are definitely corporate PR/marketing.

Maybe next time you find yourself writing that, think about whether
you really should be sending what you've written. You're basically
saying to everybody to use the delete key/button if necessary - and if
people on this list know how the Internet works they probably already
know how to delete emails, and don't need to be told what do with
ones they aren't interested in ...
