some putz is posting garbage under my name and also some others, also cross-posting to comp.robotics.misc IGNORE HIM

f*ck... Figured something was up when James started spouting scripture... *g* That is a creative bot. Never seen one grab a whole bunch of names, and existing posts, off a list and reply an entire novel to a group. Hope it doesn't catch on. That one will be tough to filter.

CAN'T be much worse than filtering crazy MI-5 guy... ; )

Well... it is. MI5 is easy. Filter on subject. Only way to filter these is on nntp posting host and Thunderbird doesn't do that. (I know, get a real newsreader. right?*g*) Seems they've given up for the moment. Hope they stay away...
