Yea right. If kept detailed statistics I might notice a statistically
significant decrease in the 4th digit to the right of the zero in the
percentage of mail I get that is spam.

[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Quite frankly, I was not that impressed
with the feds' efforts, either in this case. Now, if the feds did that
sort of thing day after day for a couple weeks or so, _then_ I think
we would see a substantial decrease in spam. PAT]
