Or we've seen other newsgroups get taken over by spammers to the point that
they're unusable. Saw it with cle.* many years ago, have seen it time and
again with news.admin.net-abuse.email... just to name a few.

Sounds like "Just hit delete." I've heard a lot of email spammers sing that
tune.

Thing is, my opinion of most of your Skype posts is no different from
my opinion of someone going into the Sprint or Cingular newsgroups and
starting to post similar crap about Verizon. I wouldn't condone that, either.

Anyhow, Larry, let me turn the tables: How much is Skype paying you? Do you
get some sort of referral fee? I know you love to claim I'm on Verizon's
payroll. How about you?
