seems like the problem is poor signal to noise ratio.
i'm not sure that will be solved by quick and easy web interface to noise
creation.  do we have an easy route to communicate with the spammers?
like posting on this list?  if they are spamming, then they are also
watching and giggling.  if so, perhaps we could ask them a few things;
"what do you want?", "do you have a question?", and "does your mother know
what you are doing?" come to mind.
