It's actually:

Weird to run across something that's CASE sensitive!
Thanks for the tip Susan!

Thanks, Susan, for the link and suggestion. The link you gave is a
bit off. It should be:
(For some reason, many web servers treat upper- and lower-case
letters as different characters.)
Also, the page points to some forms that can be printed and mailed to
the DMA - Direct Mail Association, to which many mail order
businesses belong. But not all catalog businesses do, and it appears
that even members don't always honor the list.
Naively, perhaps, I sent in all three forms (print mail, email, and
phone) for our house several years ago. I cannot notice any decrease
in junk mail. And forget about email.
But since having added Anonymous Call Rejection through our local
phone company, I can happily report that I now get one or two
telemarketing calls A YEAR. It's expensive, requires Caller-ID, and
forces even friendly callers to disable (temporarily for one call)
their outbound caller-ID blocking, but the silence is more than worth
it for us.
Regards,
Maurice

instead of trying to fire your kiln with catalogs, you can stop receiving
many of them by logging on to:

Many web servers run on Unix, which has case-sensitive filenames.
I don't particularly think that case-sensitivity is a good thing, but it's
something we're stuck with on Unix/Linux.
