Is an interesting blog post about Hormel objecting to the use of the term SPAM and requesting that only lower case be used.
I've lost count of the number of times that I've corrected newbies who have used the term "SPAM" (incorrect) instead of "spam" (correct). Not only is the latter form the one preferred by Hormel, but it's the proper term, since it is not an acronym. ---Rsk ------------------------------------------- Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/247/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/247/ Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
