Perhaps the time to consider amending the newsgroup charter to
specifically exclude off-topic spam advertising.

How would that be enforced?

The Acceptable Use Policy of some anonymous news providers
(notably
Altopia alt.net include their intent to discipline the users who
post articles to newsgroups that are contrary to the newsgroup
charter.

If that works, could we also update the charter to exclude any
posts that I'm not interested in? That would make it much
easier for me.

To have the newsgroup charter amended to contain such language
would
require a majority vote.



I vote Larry out.

Larry's post is off-topic, so I've asked his service provider to
close
his account. It should be done by COB Monday.


Excellent. Usenet will be safe once again.

Is it just me or does it seem more peaceful, already?

Seriously, the sun just came out and birds are chirping, for the first
time today.

If he only knew what a blot upon the landscape he was...
