Please don't take yourself so seriously. They were having a little fun
with the rare spam that actually gets through to the list. I don't see
any harm in that. Or are you "that devoid" of a sense of humor that you're
"wasting my time" with this self-righteous lecturing? Have you never seen
a joke before?

It is. We tolerate a good deal of non-Linux posts and, once they go
on too long, direct them to the general list. We're as much friends
here as anything else, but, don't be deceived, some might bright
Linux minds hang out here.
