I propose that everybody add John Gilmore to every junk mailing list
under their control and make sure he receives at least 2 copies of
every message until such time as he calms down.  If John Gilmore
doesn't like the behavior of a mailing list, he can always solve the
problem by taking himself off it.

I mean, really.  If Gilmore can't write a simple filter to eliminate
these messages unseen, then either he isn't all he's cracked up to be
as a programmer or Unix isn't all it's cracked up to be as an operating
system.  One has to wonder about someone who publicly harangues the
managers of a system that is providing a public service (and worse,
calls them "assholes") on such a trivial problem.
