Andrea found out that her dog (a Schnauzer) could hardly hear, so she took it to the veterinarian. The vet found that the problem was hair in the dog's ears. He cleaned both ears, and the dog could then hear fine. The vet then proceeded to tell Andrea that, if she wanted to keep this from recurring, she should go to the store and get some "Nair" hair remover and rub it in the dog's ears once a month. Andrea went to the store and bought some "Nair" hair remover.
At the register, the pharmacist told her, "If you're going to use this under your arms, don't use deodorant for a few days." Andrea said, "I'm not using it under my arms." The pharmacist said, "If you're using it on your legs, don't use body lotion for a couple of days." Andrea replied, "I'm not using it on my legs either.
If you must know, I'm using it on my Schnauzer." The pharmacist says, "Well, stay off your bicycle for about a week." _________________ H3/AT/FL et.al.

Your ham radio license is good for ten years, this is the year that I have to renew (expires next month).
The FCC has a new on-line automated system that works great.
I only had one small problem.

I recently used your on-line system to update my license.
I hardly ever give out my email address but I thought it was important on my ham radio license (one more communication route possible).
The day after I used your web site, I started receiving MASSIVE amounts of spam in my email account.
All the (new) spam has a noticeable BOLD type-font compared to any of the other spam I (normally) receive.
and I received a response within 24 hours.

You are receiving this email in response to your inquiry to the FCC.
Dear Mr. Webber,
Thank you for contacting the Federal Communications Commission.
The Universal Licensing System (ULS) is an interactive licensing database developed by the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau to consolidate pre-existing licensing systems used to process applications and grant licenses in wireless services. ULS provides numerous benefits, including fast and easy electronic filing, improved data accuracy through automated checking of applications, and enhanced electronic access to licensing information for the public. ULS supports electronic filing and provides public access to licensing information. Public access files are created for all of the radio services that are contained in ULS.
In accordance with Section 0.453(h)(1) of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R., Sect; 0.453(h)(1) all authorizations in the Wireless Radio Services and files relating thereto, are available to the public. In accordance with Section 0.460(a) of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. , Sect; 0.460(a), these documents are also available to the public on the World Wide Web located at www.fcc.gov .

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) adopted detailed rules that restrict sending unwanted commercial e-mail messages to computers. To find out more about the FTC's rules, visit http://www.ftc.gov/spam/.

You also may be able to take legal action for harassment. You should contact your ISP for assistance and to learn about their company's policy, or consider seeking legal advice from an attorney.
Please also note that enhanced services, such as electronic mail or internet access services, are not regulated under Title II of the Communications Act of 1934; thus are not within the regulatory jurisdiction of the FCC.

Useless
Absolutely useless.
Thank you for your quick answer.
I have been in this situation before, where I ask trained professionals to solve the problem and I am told "there is no problem", so I know how to react.
I have gone back into the FCC database and updated my personal information.
YOU no longer have an accurate email address on me.
I did not eliminate the address, I used a non-existent address to give the spammers something to do.
YOU no longer have an accurate phone number for me.
I HATE tele-marketers. The last conversation I had with a tele-marketer I said "I don't think It's fair, I just got out of jail for murdering a tele-marketer and I have NOT had the chance to open up a checking account. Where can I take my cash to purchase your fine product?". He hung up on ME!
YOU no longer have an accurate street address for me.
I changed my street address to my neighbors house, he uses the junk mail to start fires in his wood stove.
If I receive any "official" looking letters, he walks over and hands them to me.
Can you please describe to me what your job actually is?
Maintaining an accurate record of Ham radio operators?
Way to go!
I suggest that you revoke MY license due to my inability to play this stupid game.
No wonder there is a revolution every 200 years, feels like it's a bit overdue right now.
Useless.
Absolutely useless.
I am NOW officially a "Grumpy Old Man". _________________ Mark Webber
