Received this from EDUCOM over the weekend; PSI TELLS LAW FIRM TO "CEASE AND DESIST" ADVERTISING Performance Systems International Inc., which provides Internet access for Arizona law firm Canter & Siegel, has ordered them to "cease and desist" their unsolicited advertising on some 1,000 bulletin boards. The law firm has raked in about $100,000 in business since their first ad was posted in April, but the husband-and-wife principals also have been deluged with obscene phone calls and "carloads" of magazines to which they never subscribed. "This is a down and dirty bunch of irresponsible" miscreants, says Ms. Siegel.
