Chuq nominated,

| A site in Canada deleting all messages with the words "sp*c**l *ff*r" in
| them. Telling us if it's NOT spam, to re-send without that phrase.
|
| Like we're really going to resend a set of mail list messages for their
| benefit....

Last week a twit on another list autoresponded at me that he doesn't accept
mail with exclamation points in the subject, so if I want him to receive it, I
should send it again with no exclamation points.

It had *one* exclamation point, and that because it was Re: the subject of
another post, whose author was excited about having finally solved a knotty
problem.

There may be only one award per day, but there's a candidate born every
minute.
