That�s the funny thing. I DONT�T get spam to the mail I write with
smoke in the sky for everyone to see! And instead, I get a lot from an
account that I�ve never accesed since creation, a month ago. Being
honest, they all start with dduca, and they�re all listed in my PGP
key, but I don�t believe they go harvest there.

FYI, I�m subscribed to around 30 lists, some for ex-jobs I like to get
current (I�m working in a hotel since 2002 and the Argentine crisis)
just in case. Pharmaceutical (I have a degree in chemistry), telecoms
(worked there too), some personals including RPGs, Magic the gathering
(yeah, I know), school, college and university ex-student groups, RC
modeling, and some computer-related. I don�t browse for porn, since
(a), I�m married quite recently, and (b), let�s be honest, it�s easier
and cheaper to rent. So... I don�t get a pattern. Oh, and it�s
beginning to get heavier on nig-419. No messages about toys, nor
models, nor drugs (except the viagra-enlargement), nor games.

I think about the same as you, bt I can�t confirm that suspicion with
facts... (-8

MM> if I write about sex, I get an avalanche of these... enlargement offerings.
MM> Honestly, I do not need any of these three, *especially* not *some* of them.

And there�s no way to tell them that 95% of the girls like it as we
like Coke, regular, please... (-8

PD: All that typing, and my mate got cold ;-)
