stop mailing dead people!

Dear Corporate America,


please stop mailing dead people.

I just got a direct mail for my beloved grandmother, who dropped her body 5 years ago, for Gevalia Kaffe, some fancy coffee mailorder thing. I did the ethical thing: I got the no-postage-necessary envelope, and filled out a little note and I'm sending it back to them, saying please take us off your mailing lists.

Think about how many trees it takes to mail dead people.

direct mail has gotta' go.


yours in the trees,

Theo
