	I hope everybody realizes that this is very likely to 
	INCREASE the amount of spam that gets sent to the nanog 
	list -- even if we get less from this specific company.
	I think it's time we closed it off and bounced messages 
	from non-subscribers.

	It would also be a good idea to put more pressure on the
	backbone which ignores complaints about thehitman.com (you
	know who I'm talking about.)  I, too, would very much
	prefer to have a hands-off, "we're just a backbone, it's 
	not our problem" attitude -- sure would mean less work for
	me -- but that is just simply not possible any more.
