Hey Norman, even tho I was the first to say I was very dubious about this since you have too much to lose, there's some very firm evidence that the list used was yours. Dunno if it was stolen, hacked, sold by an employee or former employee or what, but I don't think there's much evidence needed that 2 guys with typos in your db getting mail with the same typos at their homes. And you gotta understand that this, wether by bad will, negligence, settlement, security breach or whatever could cost thousands of dollars to some people. I'm sure you know what are they talking about, doesn't need a genius to figure it out. What I can see is that your biz will be very damaged with this, hence the reason I was so dubious about it. Anyway, instead of threatening people maybe you'd try to compensate and show your good will, at least that's how I see you can save this situation to some extent. You know, Victoria Secret's had to pay 50k for a database security breach just this week and had to change everything in their site, so the threatening and sueing option is no good for you. Instead, try to fix this situation I'm sure you didn't look for

Hope you had no trouble with the fires in Cali
