For what it's worth I have noticed that people who are familiar with Bayesian filtering seem to have a mental block when it comes to understanding this. People who know nothing about bayesian get it instantly. Here's the actual formula.

card(Test_message intersect Spam diff Ham) minus card(Test_message intersect 
Ham diff Spam)

I guess it's because people who are familiar with bayesian filtering say
"this is the same as bayes, just tweaked"

while people who are not think it's really a new idea.
