Dana Jones has no balls!
Do not sign me up for any mail lists. Studio42 does not accept such unsolicited business. Also, since I've recently been getting a flood of such e-mail from various people and organizations I don't wish to deal with, their names will end up here, along with their home and business addresses, and phone numbers, whenever possible.
Please realize that 99.9% of internet users DON'T want your crap in our e-mail boxes.
Minimum fine for violation of this policy allows me to legally bill/invoice for $500 and this can be escalated to a court of law.
Last update: September 12, 2000 to udpate this ongoing saga of the Man with No Balls.

UPDATE
This comes from another fellow spam hater. I've removed his identity to protect him against spammers: Subject: Golfballs Unlimited Spam Sent: 03/19/1997 09:32 Received: 03/19/1997 16:37 From: Removed to protect this person's identity To: Chris Pickett, cpicket@ns.net This Dana Jones golfball gonad has moved his operation again, this time using a ficticious address: >From golfball.bargains@www.intur.net Tue Mar 18 13:02:18 1997 >From: golfball.bargains@www.intur.net >To: buy.golfballs@lower.prices >Subject: About Golf Balls > > >=====> WE WANT YOU TO KNOW MORE ABOUT GOLF BALLS <======= > > [about 100 lines of crap deleted] But, his ballman@golfballsunlimitedusa.com address, which I found on your web page, may still be operational.
Sure enough, you can guess what followed. However, the information this person sent me and what I received to not match, in regards to where Dana Jones is originating his spam from. This does not surprise me. Remember, this is a spammer, and trying to hide to avoid being flamed is key to being a spammer.

My pages are getting a lot of attention. Apparently I am not alone as a victim of this stupid serial spammer. Today, I received a pleasant email from another victim of Dana Jones and his golf ball scam. As usual, the name of the contributor has been removed to protect them from spamming. I know who you really are, and I thank you for your assistance. This person and I are going to co-author a few pages together which will appear here. But to help your worthy cause, here's updated info I found on one of your favorites, the lame golfball-salesman. By using Deja News to search the usenet, I came across a huge golfball catalog, maybe 20 or 30 pages long, I lost count. This guy is relentless! Anyhow, this was included in the catalog (which he posted 3/27/97): > Our Mailing Address is > > Golf Balls Unlimited, USA > 11743 West Bellfort, #112 > Stafford, TX 77477 > > Phone ____________888-507-7566 toll free > Fax_______________281-568-5474 > Pager_____________800-796-7363 pin 1044360 What's new is that TOLL FREE number. I called it just to check. Would love to have you publicize it on your page, so more spam-victims will call them, and the spammers get the bill. Also, the address ballman@golfballsunlimitedusa.com is no longer working.
Time for the full-on spammer treatment since this page is dedicated to this loser.

Let's just look up Compuex.com just so I can get administrative addresses. >whois compuex.com Computer Expo (COMPUEX-DOM) 11312 Westheimer Houston, TX 77077 Domain Name: COMPUEX.COM Administrative Contact, Technical Contact, Zone Contact: Clements, John (JC3022) johnc@COMPUEX.COM 713-588-1800x134 (FAX) 713-588-1828 Record last updated on 20-Aug-96.

Sorry, too many bad hops. I mean, we're looking at 29 hops. Geeze, get a clue!!

OK, I'm bored, time to terrorize this punk with email and notify administrative folks.

UPDATE 07/07/97
I'm sending a complaint via my mail server, but I am unable to deliver email to the indicated host. Also, the actual mail server refuses to respond. I think I can proclaim that t-1.net has a severe administrative problems. Fine with me, as long as the spam stops.UPDATE 07/07/97
FINALLY! At 18:57:44, my complaint was delivered to t-1net.com. Now that the domain is appearing to be valid, I can do a traceroute on them.

UPDATE: September 20, 2000
Seems Dana Jones set up shop, and was quickly brought down. Let this be a lesson to other ISPs that this jerk might try to go to for service.If you are one of the dilweeds who sent me unsolicited email or are someone thinking about it, drop dead.
Also, if you've got a complaint about my anti-spam feelings or want to scold me for being justifiably sick of spam, I have the following words of wisdom for you:
BLOW IT OUT YOUR ASS!
