One of the guys here just got a call from Qwest asking the exact same thing. (Phone-spam this time, instead..).

Am I the only person here who doesn't think it's very intrusive of someone to send an email asking "who is your network provider?"

I would go with highly unprofessional and very unlikely to motivate me to purchase connectivity from them, even if their network didn't suck. I know engineers and sales people have never gotten along, but perhaps there is a list better suited for clownstamping them and the companies who hire them? Perhaps the entire thread regarding unprofessional comments could go there as well, and to the appropriate HR departments? -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras@e-gerbil.net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras PGP Key ID: 0x138EA177 (67 29 D7 BC E8 18 3E DA B2 46 B3 D8 14 36 FE B6)
