I just received an invitation from Ziff Davis to subscribe to their magazine Baseline. What's weird is Ziff thinks my name is "Craig Densberger". I haven't a clue who Craig is, but I get a lot of very sleazy spam of the worse kind that is also sent to Craig Densberger. Did Ziff hire a spam company to shill Baseline? Say it ain't so!
