    So, the AG will construct a big list of email addresses of people who don't 
    want to be spammed.
    
    And give spammers access to it.
    
    Is this really wise?

    Heh heh.  If I was a spammer I'd be interested in whether the list was
    published, and if so, where I could get a copy.
    
    If I were a resident of Missouri the *last* thing I would do is put my
    name on it.  Not because I want spam, but because I don't!
