New Zealand High Schools at The Names Database Derek Robson, we just wanted to let you know that we recently added New Zealand high schools to The Names Database . Now all of our 142,962 New Zealand members can reunite and keep in touch with their classmates, including you! Click here to log in to your account at namesdatabase . com . We compiled the list of New Zealand high schools using data from the New Zealand government . If your school is not listed, or you notice a mistake, we would be happy to fix it . Just click here to report an error . Take Care, The Names Database Team to me this reads that the spammers got my name and email address from the NZ goverment . I dont remember giving my email address to any govertment department . who else has had such an email? with spam that has my full name I am always interested as to where they got the info .	robsonde (120)

Did you notice that line that says: "Most basically, The Names Database is a private community of about twelve million members..." Private? 12,000,000 members? Strewth, that is an interesting concept!!!! :confused:	John H (8)
