No, not talking about Arafat, ChIraq, or Mahathir "Moonbat" Muhammad for a change. My work Email account gathers a fair amount of spam, in part because our organization's webmaster insists on having Email addresses spelled out en clair on our company website, in part because my work Email is visible in a number of technical forums.
This morning, a spammer using a Russian account E-mailed me, asking for my support against the attempts of various anti-spam organizations and purveyors of spam filtering software to "kill his legitimate business". He claims that all the complaints he and his ISP get "except for one or two" were forged by such organizations.
This is a nonlethal variant of the classic chutzpah ("impudence", "unmitigated gall") definition: a man who kills his father and mother and asks the court for clemency as an orphan.
