It is targeted but is one spam I accept; the rest goes into the trash. The most offensive one I got was a porn spam, with the disgusting lying claim that I had opted in to receive their trash and visit their &*+@%$&* sites. I have saved another one, promising university degrees from 'prestigious, non-accredited universities'. Really! When I am at it, I will get a doctorate diploma (PhD) next month, on November 18, not from these con merchants, but for my thesis on Dutch metrication. Any list and/or USMA member who should be in The Netherlands by chance at that time is invited to attend in Nijmegen, at 15:30. Just let me know.
