[Elecraft] Invitation to connect on LinkedIn

[John Ragle]

I don't know who "Mark Crossland" is, nor do I know who "Robert" might 
be, but I would like to warn Elecraft list members about this "LinkedIn" 
organization.

I was put on their "member" lists without my permission, and received a 
considerable amount of garbage email from them. My attempts to get 
removed from their lists went unanswered for several weeks, and I 
finally heard from them in response to a very firmly worded request for 
removal, involving the BBB and the State Attorney General's office. From 
my perspective, this outfit is little better than Twitter or FaceBook, 
e.g. a total junk organization, but lacking even the minimal control 
exercised by the latter two.
