Is there anything to be done?


If you insist on reading the group through Google or some other web service,
the answer is "no". If you get access to a proper news server and use a proper
news reader program, you can write your own filters for the spam and killfile
those who insist on their political and religious rants and end up with a pretty
good read.

The spammers, political nuts and other assorted trolls aren't going to go
away, so the choice is yours.
