yep.  you said it man.  one small point though:  you don't have to be
subscribed to the list to spam it, so don't give the spammers so much
credit, Modify...heheh.  i doubt they even bothered to query the list
server for names.  considering the similarities between alot of the spam
on this list, ntsec, and cypherpunks, i think that the spammers are just
passing around all of the mailing list addys that they can hit without
having to subscribe (HELLO! list operator?!).
