i had a thought to use fortune to randomise and hide the md5 to make
it harder for any spammer stupid enough to try and defeat spamoff.

i have a nastier idea: add a spam/flak-trap at insultant.net which is
a list of names which is linked from a page that says 'here are people
i like and their email addresses'.  BUT, on the page there just a list
('hidden' as a <ul>') of names which will generate a bunch of false positives
for the harvesters or a lotta work trying to find out which 'john j. doe'
by a a human harvester -- NO email addresses.

i might do both tonight.
