Amazingly I used to be an employee of Convergys corp. (Also known as Matrix Marketing). Convergys is centrally located in Omaha Nebraska where they have a very large call center. That center takes calles for American Express, AT&T, and other large companies.
They used to have a call center in Houston for Compaq support which I am fairly certain has now been closed. They also do calls for the 1800 companies you see on TV and they do outbound telemarketing as well (the guys that call you at dinner time on sundays).
Generally speaking, they are a pretty well rounded company with a good amount of organisation. Curious though, they used SCO for their EIM dialers and I wonder if they still do.
Please review the dictionary before stating that distribution of copywrited material is not piracy.
Definition number 2 according to Dictonary.com is "The unauthorized use or reproduction of copyrighted or patented material: software piracy"

After spending the past 5 hours going through our corporate email getting bombarded by the thousands of users who are unable to do their business now. The answer is no.
After spending an unbelievable amount of money on purchasing anti-spam protection devices, the answer is no.
Im sorry the guy has gotten a few hundred unsolicted catalogs. In the past two days the company that I work for has recieved over 5,000 unsolicited catalogs. Since he claims to be running a business, then maybe he should get a business address instead of a personal address. Personally I have no love for spammers. They waste my time, they waste my energy, and they waste my money. And yes it is my money when I think of how much I could have used that (insert cost of anti-spam device here). This includes SA which costs nothing but the hardware and the pipe.
Well a year ago, my wife was shot and killed at work. She was an active member of an online quake clan known as the purple haze (http://www.phz.com). For their memorial, ever member of the clan wore the =pHz= tag with the name "in memory" for an extended period of time. Furthermore, they put up a perminant memorial to her on the web site, and my own clan the Dragons Bane (http://www.dragonbane.net) has dedicated their whole web sit to her memory. They do not forget. They are people too.
I still talk to members of both clans regularly and all those that I speak with ask about how my children and I are holding up. All of them are very dear friends and all of them wish that they could have been here for her real life funeral. However, because they didnt have the money to get on an airplane or drive across country, they decided to honor her and give her the one thing that they could. And for that, every member of those two clans as well as the entire comunity of quake players that were a part of her life will forever be my own and my families friends.
No, there isnt anything that makes my pain go away, but these people who were friends online are in just as much mourning as everyone else is. The thing is that you cant see their faces and you cant help wipe away their pain. But they hurt too.
