Hey,thats a cool ascii Colin,thanks fer sharing Fenn's Popeye with us.
As to the spam increase,I see it and it is not good,but it isnt as bad
as i thought it would be,maybe my isp has some filtering in place
i dont officialy know any thing but that they have a antispam filter
on outgoing stuff.
  If any one has been seeing an overwhelming increase in spam lately
the i would recomend going here:
http://www.sputum.com/cns/moratorium.html

and clicking on this link:
http://www.sputum.com/cns/complaint.html
and use it as a template to complain to your isp about
thier need to add spam filtering to thier usenet service.

I hope that this moratorium will bring good results.

         Anyhow,im not tring to get off topic but i think
this is ontopic in just about any ng if ya want to enjoy
a good discussion with out having to dodge crap loads of spam.
