This is a public, non-moderated newsgroup. One of the things you get with the privilege of using it is having to put up with spammers, trolls and other lowlife types. The only reason they have for hanging out here is because they get what they want: a few suckers will always take the bait. Ignore them. ___

Unfortunately it's not just this newgroup -- it affects about 1/2 of my 30 subscribed newsgroups. Filters help but contacting/complaining to the ISP is the only real way to handle these bozos.
