I use them for domain registration -- I have about 23 -- but it does not host any of the websites. I get one email from them, maybe, ever week. I have them automatically sent to my "probably spam" folder, as the only meaningful communication I ever get from them is "your registration will expire in six months: RENEW NOW FOR 100 YEARS BEFORE YOU LOSE IT!!1!"

If that link to remove yourself from the commercial/sales list is not functional (that would not be the first time to happen) you could add a new rule in your e-mail client, in those cases I end up marking the e-mails as read, and sending them automatically to the trash folder, then before removing everything I check the subject lines and if they are spam I flush the trash folder.
Good luck Richard!

My domains are (anonymously) registered with them, but the only time I get emails is when my domains come up for renewal.

I have a few domains with them and I don't get any spam from them other than to let me know if I need to take any actions on the domains.
Perhaps you opted in to marketing from them?

I did and now I don't for the same reason.
Plus I found out I was paying too much.
We have two domains now with namecheap.com - They rock like no other.
They NEVER spam you except the will let you know when the domain need registering.
I was turned on to them by a web dude I know and have never looked back
Like 10 - 12 bucks a year man.
Stuff that NS!

Mark them a spam and let the filter do the work for you.

I thought the London Olymipcs were going to be a shambles, but they worked out very well.
Sochi[^] may not be so fortunate.

I think the London Olympics rewrote the books on just what an Olympic celebration is, it was that good,, relevant, modern, and absoloutely a celebration of what Britain is to the world today. Its going to be a very hard act to follow.

Just curious - what exactly is Britain to the world today?

Is it me or there is no sense of joy or anticipations in these Olympics?
It looks more like a bad Putin publicity stunt than an Olympics; people seem to be going there just "because".
Was Putin ever happy in his life?
it reminds me of Transporter 3 (the movie) :
- I'm realist.
- My friend was right when he said you were doom and gloom.
- What means "doom and gloom"?
- You know, you only see the horrible and the terrible.
- Your friend, where does he get this? He doesn't know me.
I'd rather be phishing!

The London Olympics flame's copper petals on stalks was brilliantly done. Only one chance to make it work on the night and it delivered.
It would be nice to see if Sochi leaves something that can be maintained and reused. I don't really think Putin gives a toss about it once the media circus has gone home.

I'm quite certain the viewing seats are for officials to verify that the pee the athlete puts in the cups actually comes out of the athlete's body. There are just too many cheaters out there.

If Sydney can get their trains to run on time for 2 whole weeks (the ONLY time they have done that EVER) then I think Sochi should be able to scrape through.
It always surprises me what a disaster these games (commonwealth in India, various Olympic games) before they start and how successful they are at the end. I hope these ones work out as well.
