Got a bunch of spam comments this week. I liked the one that had the robo quote "Education is the progressive discovery of our own ignorance." It indicated an Asian ethic maybe but maybe not. Aren't these newer spams being left by hand nowadays from laborers at spam farms? Thought I heard that. I retained one other one for the good funny quote too.
Elsewhere in 'net mischief, I had a friend offer to give me a bitTorrented copy of Microsoft Office. I considered it , I am ashamed to say, and then declined it, realizing that pirated expensive software must be a great way to install Bots on peoples laptops. These bots are then used for bot attacks against sites like eBay or against government sites even, taking them down with denial of service requests. I didn't want to be a party to that. So I got a legit copy of Microsoft Office instead.
