[Michlib-l] Experience with IDDDYSRCC

[North Adams Library]

I thought that email sounded very suspicious. We are a very small library
and there is no way to justify sending him prizes that are intended for our
children. My policy on any email asking for something, or to be added to
our web page, is that it is a bulk email and they will never know what I do
with it. So it goes straight into the trash.
