Actually many of us ARE having a cow over junk mail.
"The environmental impact of junk mail is substantial. . . Individually,
an average of 41 pounds are sent to every adult. About 44 percent goes
unread directly into the garbage and 93 percent of junk mail will be
discarded ultimately. Americans spend over $275 million to dispose of
junk mail."
