infrastructure provider. If the firm is not that big, the provider
When I get spam from a bulk mail service, I add the entire service to
my filter.
Believe it or not, we are subscribed to some bulk mail lists for legit reasons, so we sometimes get both good spam and bad spam from the same provider.
I cannot just go and add the bulk mail provider directly to the blacklist because then the good spam will go to the void and people will start complaining.
Why not? just make 'logs' out of it?
But i do agree, i had that same thought more than once. "hey, thanks for the fuel".

You can't run a successful fireplace only on paper, but paper greatly helps getting a good fire started. I save all the snail mail spam to light the fire.

Paper just doesn't burn as well as hardwood. The smoke is terrible. Some advertisement paper has so many chemicals in it that the flame will be green instead of fiery red or orange, and you cannot use it for cooking.
I'd rather burn horse poo if I run out of hardwood.
Paper is great for getting the fire started, which is the reason why I keep so much waste paper around.
Right, but if is free.....

Horse poo is also free and I have much more of it.
True, but most of us dont :)

I do burn my snail mail, but mostly for fun :) I don't have a fireplace
and I don't have a source of horse poo. The stuff that comes out of cable
news channels definitely counts as horse poo, but as previously mentioned,
I don't have that either.
See how I brought it back around? DAMN I'm good :)

You live in NY and you don't have a fireplace??
My old house (The Mouse House) had a fireplace. My current house (Awesome
Acre) does not. I do miss it sometimes, but I don't miss the heat loss through
the chimney, that's for sure.
Perhaps it's because this house was built in Pennsylvania and then trucked over to New York? I didn't know we had a reputation for homes with fireplaces.

No reputation, I just would have expected it to be the norm for northern residences
to always have some last ditch emergency heat source.
Oops, my ignorance here may have deanonymized my location some. Or did it?? Maybe I am only feigning ignorance to throw you off!

You know you can seal them up when not in use.. right?

Went to get my 10 pound CO2 tank exchanged on way home today ( for my coke ). ~15 dollars more than last summer. F-ing Liberal economy

That old house was built in 1938. I'm looking at it on a real estate site now and the last seller apparently lied and said that it was insulated. The lower level most certainly was not. "Enjoy cozy cottage living at its finest" haha. The fireplace was really drafty.
For many years we dealt with a piece of wood that had been cut into the shape of a damper when the old damper had presumably rotted out a long time ago.
One time we even had a bat in the house that had flown down the chimney.
A few years before we moved I learned about a wonderful device called a "top closing damper". It sits on the top of the chimney and completely seals the flue when not in use. You operate it with a chain from the bottom.
When the house went back on the market again six years after we sold it, the next owner had replaced the open fireplace with one of those cast iron stove inserts.
Ya.. one of them. + the lower to help.

I am afraid horse poo is much better than what comes out of TV these days.
Well yes, you're right. When I smell horse poo I think "cool, I'm near a
stable; I'm in the country" and it has a lot of good associations for me.
When I smell CNN, MSNBC, or Bush News, I just want to throw up.

Right now it would be nice if I could turn off smell. There is rotting garbage
in one of our cans that is so putrescent that my kids thought something had
died.
It's the raccoons, of course ... they go in there and tear open the bags to get a snack. I suppose it's better than when they used to redistribute the garbage all over the driveway (we gave them all socialist names because they like to redistribute) because it's easier to clean up ... but DAMN the smell!!!!!11111

It may smell bad, but the coons are reducing your food waste, which is a good thing.
