Oh, man, let's not get into a flame war about this.  The jolly roger people
are spammers who post the equivalent of political ads to members of lists
that they themselves don't belong to and have no interest in belonging to.
There's no call for censorship in thinking that spamming is uncivil.  As
spammers they're not the worst, but they're not the best either.  --WF
