Heck, I may even blog about your job if you're nice enough to me (sharing the commission is nice too, of course). :-P Lou, Corey,

Meant to look like it's aimed specifically at you while not being so specific as to rule out the other 9,000 IT professionals that are bcc'd on the same e-mail. It's such an unfortunate waste of time for all parties involved. Ah yes, the unfortunate blast e-mail.

Obviously, written by someone without formal writing skills or recruitment training. My guess, he's one of those young "superstar offshore talents" we hear so much about. I get dozens of emails daily from recruiters offering me their candidates. I guess they can't figure out that I'm the competition.
