Full props to Ross, his witt is much better than mine.  I am currently working on a comeback and I will inform you when it gets up to version 2.1.4.5.2.3.6b.  Have a great weekend. Kev

  I don't know, Kevin. Perhaps DEATH is too good for these   spammers.
  Why don't you just have a triple no foam latte, go sleepless   for six nights and think about it a bit more?    

  You may decide to join a little band of we DBAs who have   decided to travel to Eddy Haskell's house tonight with   torches and buckets of oil.
  If the police won't do anything about this, maybe we concerned   citizens can.
  Yours in Bandwidth Vigilance,
  etc.

  Those are all very excellent points there Charlie, but if this   is how angry you get when you get spam I would hate to   see what you are like when something really bad   happens.  Give me a break already, go ahead and get <FONT   size=2>some proof of all of those laws in all of those states, then go ahead   and try and find a halfway decent lawyer who would   actually take it to court. Good lord!!    Bandwidth, right, what do you have a 56k modem, please. <FONT   size=2>Tresspass of chattel, what idiot let that slide, it's email for crying   out loud.  Hey, in that line of thinking the next   time I see a sign on the side of the road I am going   to freak out, or better yet the next time one of those   telemarketers calls me I am going to get all of their information and   prosecute them, their company, there family, all of their   friends, and their dog!!   At least the damn   thing was about something useful, like training to be   an Oracle Certified Professional.  At least it was something useful,   it wasn't about new and improved laxatives or   something of that nature.  Jeez, try and   relax

  Do you mean that other than the FACT that this SPAMMER   directly violated his contract with both @HOME and   INSYNC.NET; who is his ISP?
  Do you mean other than the fact that this LUSER consumed MY   bandwidth, MY disk storage, & my CPU cycles   without MY consent to deliver his <FONT   size=2>SPAMvertizement? Such activity has been   successfully prosecute for THEFT by conversion and <FONT   size=2>trespass of chattel.
  Do you mean that other than the fact this SPAM violated the   laws of CA, CO, TX, VA & WA?
  Now if you condone such behavior, I'm not sure what that says   about you.
