Subject: [GWL] Is this legit?

Anyone know these folks?  I attempted to follow directions to be
added to the distribution list and noticed that when I clicked
"editor@greennewswire.com,  the email address that popped up was to
Steve@trusty.bz.  In addition, there is no website for
greennewswire.com.

Hmmm... is this legit?
