I may have described her at one time and didn't think it was necessary to
repeat myself.  I see now that was wrong of me.  However, I get the same
newsletter as you.  For the edification of everyone here, Wendy Zamora is
Senior Content Writer at Malwarebytesÿú Writing and Editing.

Neither have I.  I don't agree that different passwords aren't required
because every site I go to has a different one.  That's a personal choice.

Just about every time I see an article from her I post it.  Until I
received your message, I wasn't sure anyone was reading this echo.  (-:

Thanks for the reply and for setting me straight.

As an aside, it is good to know 3 things about Wendy Zamora:

1. She has a sense of humor
2. She has seen Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings
3. She has seen Mel Brooks' Spaceballs.


Regards,

Roger
