  And this surprises you... why? It's a semi-public list, linked in many
places, and has been for a long time. Spam is 40% of all Internet traffic
(by moderate estimates) and they are quite diabolical at harvesting
addresses. Any addresses. All addresses.

  Maybe we could barter with the Nigerians - they transfer the money to a
consortium of Compter Collectors and allied Museum curators, and we would
ship them 10,000 386 systems complete and (possibly) functioning, for the
betterment of Nigerian education...

  Of course, they'd have to pay for the shipping and customs!
