As a staff member who uses their computer for the largest portion of my
work; I would like to very respectfully like to request that all UTC staff
refrain from submitting the raven address to any site requesting "send this
story to a friend" or the like.

SPAM, junk mail and virus issues aside, technology has now progressed to
the point where push server material now auto opens multiple web pages,
often including sound and video and totally detracting from the work at hand.

By sending the raven address to mass populate every mailbox on campus, we
not only flood the bandwidth and limited resources of our employer, but
seriously detract from the productivity of others who do not wish to have
several web pages we did not ask for covering our work.

Just a request for common courtesy that I trust will be accepted as that
and not a personal attack on any person.
