How to get mutual of Omaha to stop sending mail solicitations?
I have the answer to that question. Go to www.usps.com and download a form 1500 and apply for a prohibitory order against the sender. If you find the mail piece offensive and what is offensive is solely determined by you according to the US Supreme Court. The only requirement is the mail piece has to be offering a product or service. This would apply in your case. The Post Office will issue a prohibitory order against Mutual of Omaha, order them immediately to take you off their lists and if they mail you anything 30 days after receipt of that order the action is criminal.

What 3 dates lead up to America gaining independence from the British?
Um, there's quite a lot of dates that lead to the Revolutionary War... Sugar Act (1764), Stamp Act (1765), Townshend Act (1767), Tea Act (1773), all of which were designed by Parliament to tax the colonies, which the colonies reacted rather strongly, Coercive Acts (1774), which led to the Boston Port Harbour being closed and martial law in Massachusetts after the Boston Tea Party, the Prohibitory Act, in which King George III declared the colonies to be in rebellion, and, of course, the 1st and 2nd Continental Congress, leading to the actual declaration of independence Of course, that is just leading up to the war. During the war there was Saratoga, which gave legitimacy to the colonies' revolution, and made France join the war on their side, lending vital their vital navy and army, the surrender of Burgoyne in Albay, and the surrender of Cornwallis in York. Then the Treaty of Paris in 1783 occurred, in which Britain recognised America as a legitimate country. Hope this helps!
