        First of all, let's make sure you've been swindled...  Second, I'd be
glad to help you make this person's life a living hell if you actually
have been swindled.  Consider the facts: they did give you the right
"snail mail" address, there are 436 users for calc ti, and a good bunch
of 'em are probably dying to think of creative ways to sock it to these
creeps.  Let's give'm the benefit of the doubt for about 1-2 more
weeks.  If you still receive nothing, then I'd say they'd be in for hell
every time they think about opening any envelope, box, or package.
Hell, they might even subscribe to a few HUNDRED magazines without
knowing it!
        What do you think?
