But every body in this context know who you are talking about. How many
other Chris Lewises are involved in spam canceling. Even if that was
unstafactory you could of appened his name with his email address wich is

It also helps discreadit you. I know that you are a resonable and sane
person. And many of your arguments are valid but others don't know you

from canceling.
