This morning almost half of c.l.p was spam. In order to try to not tar both the benign google group users and the malignant ones with the same brush, I've been trying to kill usenet spam with subject patterns. But that's not a battle you can win, so I broke down and joined all the other people that just killfile everything posted via google.groups.
AFAICT, if you're a google groups user your posts are not being seen by many/most experienced (read "non-google-group") users. This is mainly the fault of google who has refused to do anything to stem the flood of span that's being sent via Google Groups. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!
