Jyrgen NThe one I liked was that of congresswoman Barbara Lee, who turned out to be one of the few people you really want to see in politics — outspoken proponent of civil rights, gun control, anti-war positions, cutting defense budget, climate action, affordable housing and health care, pro-choice, abolishing death penalty, you name it. I'd vote for her in an instant if I could. So I staid subscribed to her newsletter for a while. (2/4)
Josh N. in Las Vegas seems to have noticed and finally given Uber a correct address of his own, but I still occasionally get some pharma rep's messages for a dermatologist James N. in Berkeley. The family of a Jessica N. stopped sending me updates about their grieving the death of a loved one, not after I simply asked them to, but only when I started to annoy them back. (3/4)
Once I got an invitation for a fishing weekend somewhere in the US midwest. I replied that this message was misdirected and got back an apology from the sender for mistyping his brother's address. But he also pointed out I was still welcome to join them! I had to decline due to other plans on another continent. That was one of the nicest interactions I had via email at all. (4/4)
