I understand the need to filter out the spam, and wanting to kill all
Google Group posts because of it, but isn't there a way to do this to
allow legitimate GG posts and filter out the junk? I haven't had a
chance to check out NewsProxy, but I would imagine there's a way to
filter messages based on regular expressions or a series of text
strings that would do the trick without killing legitimate posts to
the group.

Belittle me all you like, but I happen to like the Google Groups UI
and some of its featureset, which is why I use it rather than a
newsgroup reader app that sits on my computer which I might not always
have access to when I want to read posts. If you filter Google Groups
and I happen to post something that is relevant or otherwise could
speak to the issue and you've filtered me out (I'm not talking to G.
Morgan 'cause it's obvious he won't get this post) then it's your
loss...
