I did not want to comment, but "preach on Brother Goldberg".  Usually you see 
companies only change policy when there is a huge uproar in complaints[1] but 
based on the comments of a single gifted person on an unofficial forum...well 
hey I guess this is the world of Web 2.0 with luser generated content. :-/

Maybe if TS replace their website with an anon editable wiki, much like
wikipedia, things would be better...oh hang on.

Note to TS: how many others on the group have complained?  Like other 
                trolls[2] they end up getting annoyed or killfiled, annoying 
                thing is I have to reconfigure my mail server with the kill 
                file rather than my client..well thats this weekends project

Cheers

Alex
