[Air-L] Emails from "The Center for Internet Research"

[Steve Jones]

It appears emails such as the one below are being sent without their  
sender's knowledge. I have received a few such emails from others, and  
I know some are going out under my name (see below). If you get one of  
these please be aware that it is not coming from the listed sender and  
is therefore spam.

Thank you,
Steve Jones
