Putting the legal aspects aside for a moment, because I am sure many
do not care if he is harrased or not, we need to consider a different
aspect.
 
Most of the ideas suggested require the use of resources that will
cost other people money in order to irritate Mr. Slaton.
 
Many smaller companies have small budgets for promotion and to cost
them vital funds just to fill his mailbox with paper is hurting them
more then Mr. Slaton is hurting us.
 
Also many people who openly ignore standards of behavior in order to
perform these kind of SPAMS are the type of people that not only are
not bothered by mail and phone calls, they take a perverse joy in
knowing that they are getting on people nerves.
 
They don't think like we do, what bothers us just provides
entertainment to them.
