Well, I had the misfortune to once write a python PEP.  Now I am
still getting 2 - 3 *thousand* of the things _every day_, and so
are the other PEP writers I have spoken with.  Thank you, thank
you Stephen R. van den Berg for procmail.  Never needed it more.

I say we all get together, and make a class-action suit against
Microsoft for writing operating systems that permit such nonsense.
Write this up so that after we deduct our legal costs, we send all
the money we are awarded to Amnesty International, or the Red Cross or
something.

Laura
