Right, I don't think it's that it's so much work now. When I've been
in newsgroups where this started to happen, though, in short order
there were hundreds of these things. They seem to be a DoS on
Usenet, because clueless people cross-post from all the other listed
groups. That's mostly what I was worried about. Anyway, we've
probably already spent more time discussing it than just dealing with
it will take :-/
