Hey, don't take it all so seriously. It's only usenet after all.
I couldn't resist cartooning a penguin eating the frog 
because it looked so funny, but other than that I've stayed 
out of it.

Two words: KILL FILES. Most newsreaders have this function -- set up a
filter that automatically deletes certain messages. I personally haven't
seen this feud at ALL thanks to my trusty kill files.

Do you hate Spam in your e-mail? Don't just delete it, do something about
it! Report incidents of Spam, and get the offender kicked off the net.

Do this:
1. Check the header for the REAL domain name that the Spam was sent from --
often Spammers disguise their email address.
2. Send a forward of the Spam to their Postmaster. The Postmaster's address
will be "postmaster@[domain name here]". Put the domain name from the
header in place of [domain name here].
3. Any reputable ISP will cancel the Spammer's account immediately.

Fight Spam! Join CAUCE (Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial Email)
at http://www.cauce.org/ and tell your Congresspeople how Spam mailings
hurt you.  Help protect genuine Internet commerce: Outlaw UCE Spamming.
