I wanted to notify the entire channel that it was spamming, and
unappreciated. My name isn't Mario.
I should follow Jordan Hubbards advice, not CC:ing everyone, but...
First... Why sending messages as Mario when you aren't Mario?
Second... Did you follow the link in the message? It seems to be
a BSD users group having a get together, and as people usually
are social beings (even most people sitting in front of a com-
puter) why not let other BSD users know where they can meet,
having a beer or two, talking to other people sharing a common
interest? Who knows, maybe someone comes up with a good idea
at that informal meeting, that can benefit the project? Is by
the way information about, for an example, Usenix on the mailing
list from the good people of the FreeBSD Project also spam?
I personally think (almost) everything related to BSD are
appropriate on a BSD list.

Oh, now that was really really intelligent. You tell Trish to stop
spamming you and then you cc both chat and hackers, only DOUBLING the
amount of traffic to everyone that has now occurred on this thread.
Even the domestic mice and cockroaches in my house have learned by now
that when you want someone to stop "spamming" you, you reply to THEM
DIRECTLY and don't simply cc everybody who got sent the original
message. When you do that, you only MULTIPLY the problem by a factor
of X, where X represents all the people who are too stupid to edit
their CC lines when replying to spam. You see the CC line of this
message? You see where I have EDITED it so as not to also send this
little flame to chat and hackers? Do you think you can do that in the
future, Mario? Yes? Thank you!

Thank you Jordan for your contribution to this great OS!
