Hi Tom,
As much fun as that would be, I don't think it would do any good. Also
this sort of thing
tends to backfire and give us a bad name. I really don't think it was a
deliberate spam
attack. It is more likely just someone on the list who left his job on
vacation, got fired, or some such
type thing The easiest and least stressful thing to do is filter it out.
This leaves us more time to devote to
our green things.
Just my 2¢
Bruce
