OMG--the dude is back!!! I guess the lettuce didn't work. I also took action and I emailed group owner. I see his profile is deleted, but some of his spam remains. I remember on The Motley Fool message boards getting a spam notice if we tried to post the same link more than once . This happened alot since, for example, the same article from the WSJ would mention several companies, so we'd want to post the link to each company's message board--So, it was a legitimate use of the link, but got flagged as spam.
Maybe there's a way Google Groups could do what TMF did....
