In addition, if you correspond with us by e-mail, we may retain the content of your e-mail messages, your e-mail address, and our responses.  You should be aware that when you voluntarily disclose personally identifiable information (for example, your user name or e-mail address) via comments, messages, postings, or in other public areas of the websites, that information can be collected and used by third parties and may result in unsolicited messages from other posters or third parties.  These activities are beyond our control.
