Well, at the sign up site (which I went to independently of the email) there's some "fine print" and included is the following: Right to Sell/License Data: CRC may sell and/or license the personal information that you provide to us to third party businesses. These businesses may include providers of direct marketing services and applications, including lookup and reference, data enhancement, suppression and validation, email marketing, and telemarketing. So, if one had signed up for the National Do Not Call List, this would knock you off it again.
