Unsubscribe me please. Your unsubscribe link does not function. You would do well to make use of a spell check before publishing and distributing your newsletter - so many misspelled words.

Hello Impious Bob,

Well, the name fits. Impious and rude could be considered synonyms.

I just went through the entire newsletter with spell checker and found 3 common and one uncommon word misspelled. Is that "many" in your book Bob? More important, why is it a concern to you? For someone who doesn't want to read the newsletter, why bother bringing up such a trifling thing?

Besides, do you understand the difference between an inability to spell correctly and a typo? The 3 common words I mentioned were really typos, not words which I didn't know how to spell correctly. Isn't it slightly under handed and unfair to imply an inability to spell correctly, when in fact we are talking about typos here?
I'll admit to an error in typing Frankincense. I didn't check the spelling of the herb "Frankincense" and typed it with an "e" instead of an "i". Big deal. I guess it's a major offense in the eyes of punctilious armchair warriors like yourself.

But is that really important in light of the value of the NEW information I was trying to relay to you -a person who subscribed to the newsletter-about 3 important germ killers? Spelling typos? That's important to carp about?

How small minded can you get!

I'll go to the list and look for your name. If you are there, I'll be happy to remove it; as I don't wish to share information, especially valuable information, with rude and obnoxious carpers such as yourself. Well, on second thought, you did use the word 'please' twice, so I guess I should only give you half a demerit point for 'rude' and 2 points for being obnoxious.

Actually, the web site unsubscribe does work OK, as I checked it yesterday, but you might be right. On the other hand, is it possible that you subscribed with a different e-mail address than the one you are using to unsubscribe with? Hmmm?

If that's the case, I'll be sure to let you know.

Sincerely, Ken

PS: Being perfect is such a HEAVY burden to carry, isn't it Bob?

Greetings Ken,

I assumed there would be many misspelled words since I found three on a single page. I understand typos and I was not being sanctimonious (being impious, how could I?) about spelling but there is so much of this occurring these days that one begins to look at the details a little more closely in order to make informed decisions as to the veracity of subject matter. No meanness intended, just wanting to disconnect from your e-mail list - that's all. I found your information interesting but decided that chemtrails are unproven and that this sort of unproven science your site promotes is just more information that I don't need to load up with at this time. Gawd knows, there is fear aplenty and it is nigh impossible to just BE these days without succumbing to hysteria with the political, spiritual and physical problems appearing in this world. This is all.
BTW: I nearly fabricated a chemtrailbuster(?) as described on your web site but decided to relax instead. Photos not convincing and I have yet to study Reich's work.

Regards and peace,

ImpiousBob
