So do I, and therefore I did not say a word about that.


If you could reread my comment, I objected to having been spammed with the
same message _personally_, days _before_ it appeared on SEELANGS.  Let me
repeat the key words: _before_, and _personally_.


When I complained to the senders at Folklore Dept., World Lit. Institute,
Russian Academy of Sciences _before_ it appeared on SEELANGS, I was told,
_before_ the message appeared on SEELANGS, that the promo was spammed (not
through SEELANGS) to people whose addresses were culled from the list.

I wish that Dr. Minyonok, Curator of folklore archive, did not use
SEELANGS as a source of addresses to spam _individually_, as she did
_before_ she posted the promo to SEELANGS.
