They seem to being splurged all over Usenet. Notice
the Approved: lines in the headers, which (I think)
is the line that enables them to infest even some of
the moderated newsgroups.

They think it is funny.

When I first came onto Usenet (in early 1997) the
number of pig-ignorant arsewipes that there are
around the world came as quite a surprise.

Easy. Just send an NNTP send with the faked e-mail address.

Look at the path headers though. I thnk teh one from 'me' came via
toscali, whereas I am - for a few days more anyway - on demon.

Usenet really went down several years before 1997 IMO.
September 93 (when AOL users got a newsfeed) was really bad.

Then in 94, Cantor and Seagull started spamming.
