I'd expect that to be a relatively rare case. Having spent 3 years in Yahoo! Finance and responsible for the news feeds (PR and otherwise), I know the PRNewswire and BusinessWire are pretty good about the clients they take. If you'd like to send the spam my way, I can try running it thru the channels there to see if anything comes of it. Jeremy -- Jeremy D.
