Yo, dudes, I have written to Google concerning this. If Google says
don't do it anymore, then I will abide by their rules. If Google says
it's OK, what a bummer for you guys, huh?

I'm pretty sure I know what Google will say.

Google's motto is "Don't be evil." Unsolicited advertising is evil. It's
evil because every time such appears, somewhere a kitten is thrown into a
leaf shredder.

Posting through Google Groups just compounds the problem. When spam emanates
from Google Groups, a kitten AND a puppy are tortured to death.
