I apparently broke Federal spam law 880 times today, and over 300 times yesterday. Nothing I'm going to be held accountable for, but apparently the way that the ADA planned to send out these fulfillment emails? Yeah, we're not actually allowed to do it that way. They're going back now, and doing the whole thing through convio, conveniently pulling the email addresses directly from our database and uploading them all automatically. Which would be one of those things we "couldn't" do, if you'll recall, and the reason I had to make the latest modifications to my script. A script that is now largely obsolete. Though I did get to modify it on the fly to generate an answer to a question my supervisor thought I might know off the top of my head: what percentage of participants not registered online have emails? Why he thought I might even possibly have an idea of that, I have no earthly clue. Thankfully it was very easy to modify the email parsing portion of my script to answer that question.
