I do agree.  As soon as I recognize what a spammer is doing (first post I 
look at) I systematically delete everything else that person writes.  One 
can't read everything on the net, and this is the best way I know to 
discard the uninteresting.  To police the posts, however, adds a layer of 
formality and constraint that would disrupt the friendly spontaneity that 
characterizes this list.
