Re: [AISdiscuss] Turner Publishing agreement

["William Plotner" <gardens@molalla.net>]

Hi Terry et all;


Your note states..."Last year , we balked at sending a mailer to members
and, instead, sent a mailer to the affiliates."

If WE (AIS) are sending  a mailer to our members I have no objection at all,
BUT if we are selling opr mailing list to this company...I do have an
objection as this is something we have told our members that we would not
do.

Will
