I visited <www.topica.com/lists/awu> -- the listserv from which the spam in question arrived -- this morning; the listserv had only 13 subscribers, two of whom must have been Kelley and Thomas (of all LBO-talkers!). The list appears to have disappeared by now. Can't be very effective spamming. -- Yoshie
