That's interesting, since I received two different unsolicited faxes on my
home fax machine during the last several months. I got very annoyed at them
and then simply threw the faxes away. If that happens again, I ought to keep
the fax and follow up on that. I have had that fax machine for about 2 1/2
years now, and these were the only junk faxes I have received to date, and
I'm hoping that this is not an increasing trend. Anybody else been getting
junk faxes lately? I remember that that used to be a bit of a problem at the
company I worked for during the early and mid 90s.
