I agree. This newsgroup has so much good information and machining ideas!
But along with it I have to put up with so much cross posting, spam, and
right wing crap that probably 1/2 the posts along with some good one's are
in my kill-file.

What to do?????

What is it about this news group that attracts the nuts and spammers?
I've
been accumulating blocked senders to eliminate the penis and tennis shoe
ads
as well as the become a millionaire ads and my blocked sender list has
about
150 entries. For some reason, rec.crafts.metalworking seems to attract
more crap than other NGs that I monitor.

comp.os.linux.misc is even worse. The shoe spammers keep changing
their email addresses, they get a lot of disposable email addresses
from Gmail, so they change them every so often.
