It seems to me that there is a thriving business among webmasters selling 
"work at home" "get rich quick" schemes.  I signed up for something 
somewhere...I have no idea where and now I get a dozen or so e-mails a day 
starting with " in response to your profile" or something like that.  The 
spams are for mortgages, life insurance, prescription drugs or substitutes 
for viagra, credit repair, or breast enhancement creams (or various other 
body parts).

I too have tried the unsubscribe e-mails, or responding directly to the 
sender.  Most of the time the responses to the sender come back as 
undeliverable....or I get directed to a web page, where, in order to 
unsubscribe, I need to fill out a form with additional personal information 
about myself.

Some of the spam comes through as gibberish, which is part of what makes me 
think these are amatures trying some master plan they have been sold.

Where are the liberal democrat government protectors when you need them?

In a recent interview, General Norman Schwartzkopf was asked if he thought 
there was room for forgiveness toward the people  who have harbored and 
abetted the terrorist who perpetrated the 9/11 attacks on America.  His 
answer "I believe that forgiving them is God's function.  Our job is simply 
to arrange the meeting. "
