No problem..." the screen > once again identified him, as if to say "Mark this man's words, and hold him > to them!" I sent the following letter today, to Bell Atlantic: To whom it may concern: On the tv program Frontline, the chairman of Bell Atlantic stated, "anyone who is concerned about information being stored about them on our computers, they just need to ask, and we'll delete everything. No problem..." In accordance with this promise, I am hereby requesting that all information about me stored in your computers be deleted. Please send a letter of confirmation when this is done. Thank you. I do NOT authorize Bell Atlantic to provide any such stored information about me to any third parties of any kind, whatsoever.
