Shakespeare/WWI Connection? (Oct 02 2003 07:33 GMT) - Having read maybe too much of Harold Bloom, I've become a Shakespeare enthusiast and think like he does that Shakespeare is the font of today's literature -- that he is the beginning of it, and even the best of it -- of Western Literature, if you want to call it that -- a kind of young and undiluted form of the literature of today. It has not just been Bloom, but my own response to Shakespeare that has caused me to think this way -- he seems so much larger than life, but believable. Then... |

What If We Blocked The Sites Advertised By Spam? (Oct 02 2003 07:29 GMT) - Whenever a debate over stopping spam comes up, someone usually suggests not to worry about filters or knocking the spammers themselves offline. Instead, they say, we should target the people who pay the spammers to pay. There are tons of little scam shops set up that simply give a few hundred dollars to spammers and then rake in whatever money they can from gullible dupes who believe spam.

With that in mind, here's a suggestion for a different way to stop spam: |
