I'm already behind a filter for /normal/ spam, but the latest batch is
really weird:

| Hey, Roger never trains until Zephram outwits the tall laptop bimonthly.
| It's very robust today, I'll vend eventually or Chester will take the
| advertisements.
| To be bizarre or overloaded will engulf cold advertisements to finally open.

| cheers, L. Jacobs

Is this a carefully coded message, an experimental AI program, just
meaningless bunkum, or what?

I'm totally baffled.
