This net.kook again?  *sigh*

Those who haven't seen him before, here's an executive summary:  |-|erc
insists (among many other things) that messages sent to him have a
statistically-significant-higher-than-usual probability of having some
sort of wordplay correlation between the body and sender's name, which

examples seem to come from Usenet, making it trivial to use Google
Groups to cheat like a mad dog.
