Back when I used to work at a University (I went on to bigger, better, 
and more highly skilled work years ago - not to decry anyone who works 
at a University or anything)  I saw somebody get fired for doing 
precisely what Seth cited... which also happens to be what you're doing.

Perhaps they ignore laws and regulations in Texas... I don't know.  But 
in the Northeast, it would be reason for release or suspension if you 
used state time and resources (the mail server) to send out politically 
charged messages. 

As an aside, that person was one of only two people I saw fired over a 
two and a half year period.   The other guy was fired for hacking into 
financial institutions during work hours.

So, while you're laughing, I say Seth should write those letters and 
pursue it, as long as you're going to publicly dare him to do it.

p.s.  In either case, it's not particularly smart to post political 
diatribes from your work address, regardless of what consequences come 
with it.
