When I first posted the 800-number, I might have started the rumour that
it MAY be possible to also request that junk-mail is stopped.

Alas, to save you useless calls, this is NOT so.  For LESS (or MORE) junk
by mail, you have to write to:

	DIRECT MARKETING ASSOCIATION
	6  East   43rd  Street
	New York,  N.Y.   10017

Now what makes me believe that such a request where I provide my name,
address and phone-number will get me OFF any lists, I don't know.  The
first thing that happens, of course, is that I get ON ANOTHER ONE.  )-:
