	A number of people have tried to arrange a boycott against
	AGIS.  It's even been somewhat successful -- more and more
	people seem to be switching providers.

	The spam hasn't lessened one bit.

	We've tried complaining.  We've tried filtering.  We've tried
	sending all the spam right back to [insert spammer here.]

	NONE OF IT HAS HELPED.

	So, we've got two choices: barricade ourselves inside so many
	firewalls that old friends with new accounts have to call us
	long-distance in order to send us e-mail, or work towards a
	legal solution.

	Since I've got lots of old friends (and potential new ones)
	that I want to get e-mail from, my choice is made.

	We've just got to make sure that any law which passes does not
	in any way harm legitimate uses of the Internet.
