Tech Evangelism bugs are supposed to be addressed by the Mozilla
organization or its volunteers contacting the owner of the defective Web
site.  The bug reports provide a reference for use in such contacts.
They also inform users that the problem lies in the Web site and not
within their browsers.  Finally, the bug reports should also inform
users that this is a known problem that needs no further discussion

On occasion, I might filter and ignore all newsgroup messages
posted through GoogleGroups via Google's G2/1.0 user agent
because of spam from that source.
