If Tzimon's idea flys, it would be nice if those who don't have access to
NetNews, but who nevertheless receive inappropriate shotgun ads on Internet
lists could participate in this group.  I haven't checked, is there are
JUNKMAIL list aready?  Is there a LISTSERV out there that could carry this
group (with the additional advantage of having a database archive).
 
I suppose the list itself would draw junkemail (junkYmail?) ;-)
