Sherae, While I appreciate your attempts to email & apologize, they have frankly been amateurish at best. We now have complaints about the apology letter because several people had unsubscribed. Please don't send more emails.
Spam is about consent, not content. You could send me the cure to cancer and I would consider it spam. You had no consent initially and had explicit opt outs that were ignored on the apology and you have a double-whammy. I don't want to see an apology for the apology or anyone sacking the people responsible for the credits to quote Monty Python. This kind of handling gets people in serious issues with IRBs so if you would like to learn more, please let me know. I had high hopes for this survey. Let's talk next week. Do you have any availability? Regards, KAM -- Kevin A.
