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.
