Is there any way to apply for a USCF license without getting a ton
of junk mail (USPS spam)? Problem is I have a PO Box and the catalogs
fill it up.
The USCF, for their part, appears to think that selling license holder
addresses is a legitimate way to make money regardless of whether the
recipient wants to receive it.
Another problem is the spammers themselves, particularly "Sports
Authority", who make it impossible to get through to customer support
and will spam you forever regardless of whether you've asked to opt-out
or not. Needless to say I will never do business with Sports Authority,
Oshman's, or whatever other name these scumbags go by.
But my question to the group is, how to get a license without giving
the USCF a sellable/spammable address?

USA Cycling sells their mailing list. It is part of the revenue stream. If
you are dedicated to the success of the organization, accept the box
stuffing and get on with your life.
Somehow, I doubt the organization would collapse if the mailing list were
not sold.

entire Postal system would go out of business, the federal government
would
fail, and the all of the great things that USA Cycling has accomplished
would be voided.
That might not be a bad thing. Of course, it's being driven to failure by
debt financed wars and tax cuts.
Quoted message said:Why, they would have to rehire Lisa just to straighten the
whole mess out.
Ah, the beauty queen. I doubt that she could straighten out Kunich on
Viagra.
Quoted message said:There is no relationship between great cycling and the mail.
That has been proven by Discovery.
My mail always seemed to arrive faster when Postal was riding. Must be an
academic somewhere who can get a grant to study this.
