The FTC has a new address for reporting deceptive spam...

For quite a while, uce@ftc.gov was the place to forward unsolicited e-mail. The new address is spam@uce.gov. The news originated here. The related FTC site concerning itself with spam info is http://www.ftc.gov/spam/.

Are you still getting lots of spam? How's that whole CAN-SPAM act working for you? It's good to know that the government knows what kind of BS joe consumer has to go through when reading e-mail, but the continued proliferation of digital detritus just goes to show that legislation really can't do that much when it comes to these kinds of technological issues.

Well, it's about time to get ready for work. I had the added pleasure of an extra hour for emergent training last night. At least we are paid for working extra time here. I can't say the same for some other jobs I have had. I still wouldn't trade any of it back.
