All jokes aside. I think he does make the important point that sending mail unmarked is important to a many people... maybe someone has young kids and they want to keep this side of their life private...?

I was *pissed* that Clicks magazine or AVN (I forgot exactly the magazines) started sending webmaster porno mags to my *home* address. I never asked for that shit -- some fucker sold my address to them -- they just started sending these mags to me at my fucking home address (not my PO BOX). Later when I moved out of that apartment (and one of my good friends moved in) -- she started getting all these webmaster porno magazines with name on them (even after I called to tell them to stop mailing those fucking magazines). She knows my business -- but do her parents, sorority sisters, landlord, etc. need to know my business? We choose to disclose certain things to certain people based upon our relationship with them. Unfortunately the postal system is not as private as email. What if her mom is visiting and finds the magazine in the mail? I personally don't care so much -- but I would rather be friends with her mom without her looming fantasy of my computer screen spooge. I'm not complaining about the clock -- I'm just making a point that privacy should be a consideration.
