As a Google user, you have (presumably) more clout with them than those of us who are not. Please pressure your provider to reduce the spam they output so the above drastic measure is not so attractive. Such pressure may be more effective if you *also* use an alternate NNTP provider that isn't such a spam-haven. -- \ “I put contact lenses in my dog's eyes.
