Thank You Art Bell, after I emailing you at coast to coast Spam showed up
immediately, Now I am getting spammed by every dam snake oil marketing lunatic on the web. Spam, HGH, herbal Viagera, and Disney network are as useful as pig vomit (so are Coast to Coast guests most nights) Anyone know what happened to frequent guest Chief "breaking Wind" at least he was entertaining ? -RP |

I very much doubt that Art Bell is the facilitator of the alleged "spam" e-mail you claim to be rcvg. More likely the broadcast company which produces his program (Premeire Radio Networks) is "harvesting" e-mail addresses for re-sale to telemarketing and/or direct e-mail marketing firms. For example, if you ever sent an e-mail to CNN or ABC News, Fox or even Rush Limbaugh, you can reasonably be sure that your will be "harvested" for future direct marketing purposes. The logic is that anyone who *has the time* to e-mail a news service or a broadcast company is *paying that much more attention* to the programming being produced/presented therin, and thus, would be hat much more receptive to solicitations by advertisers which sponsor (the saidsame) programming. Another example is Product Warranty Cards. These DO NOT go to the Service Department. Nor do they go to the Engineering Department. They go straight to the *Marketing Department* where the info inscribed thereupon is carefully entered into a database and sold at an ENORMOUS profit to Sales and Marketing firms Nationwide. Even your Doctor's Perscription Medication Records are being used to target market products to potential customers. I personally know 3 people who do this as a career for a national pharmaceutical company and have a database of over 5 million names that is reguarally sold to Automobile, Furniture, Travel and Brokerage companies.

That's correct. Why would a company need to know what your recreational interests are just to validate the warranty on your new blender? -- Tom Sevart N2UHC Frontenac, KS http://www.geocities.com/n2uhc |

The asshat sounds like another fine product from Peenman Enterprises. I'm sure Art will answer those questions when he promotes the asshat, perhaps on the Phil Hendrie show. Frank Dresser |

More likely the broadcast company which produces his
program (Premeire Radio Networks) is "harvesting" e-mail addresses Well if they are harvisting #1 Art should disclose this and #2 shouldnt a terms and agreements be clearly disable ? This is an email, not a online buying transaction where things are autmaticly assumed yes, sounds illeagle Premeire Radio Networks, figures being a subsidiary of the Clear Channel crime family. -RP "Paul" wrote in message ...

Art is one of radio's greatest salesmen, ever. He's gone way beyond the "Freezers to Eskimos" type. He could sell Asshats to the True Believers! Frank Dresser |
