Well, I was just formally bringing up something that has come up
informally on many occassions (particularly at meetings and such when
folks are idly discussing list topics).

Spam seems to be the pet topic of three or five list members who go on and
on about it.  I don't think a day goes by without a thread on the subject
among those four folks... usually comprising a dozen or so messages.

I'm just suggesting that we set up a forum where that sort of talk can be
discussed at great length, since it seems to be of primary concern to this
minority.

I'm certainly not the only one who doesn't care to read about it.

So should I mark you down as one against?

J.
