That's what your 'd' key is for. If that's not good enough, perhaps an addition to your kill-file is in order. Or you need assistance in creating a filter for your mailer?

I actually found the mechanics' article quite interesting. I think it's what anarchy starts to look like in the real world...ie, there are still laws 'somewhere', but they end up functioning like a 'value add' or quality control. I've argued on numerous occasions that NYC already has some very anarchic elements. I also found it useful from a very practical persepctive...I've got good names to ask for in case I need some cheap (or discrete!) work done. -TD

P.T., there's not much technical discussion here. Stick to cryptography-l if you don't care about streetside auto repair.
