I am a semiregular poster here and have a number of Google Mail (gmail.google.com) invitations and want to share them with those people who have shared their information with me online and blessed my life but with whom I don't often have much of value to share. If I offered them first-come, first-served to people on this group in recognition of and gratitude for the fact that without you folks I would still look like a cross between Jan Larkey's "Before" picture in _Flatter Your Figure_ and classic trailer trash instead of a reasonably-well-put-together person whose clothes fit wonderfully and who looks pretty good even though she weighs probably twice as much as she would really like to weigh, would you folks call it spam and thrash me soundly, even though I don't get a cent for offering them to people and they don't have to pay for it, just sign up the same as you would for a Yahoo address?
