I've had three people today email me, expressing an urgent and earnest desire to assist me in earning lots and lots of money. Spam is really getting much more endearing. But it's still spam. I can't help wondering, as I hit the delete key with giggling glee, whether these people get a good result from their spamification techniques. Does anyone, out there in the cold hard world that is the internet, actually read these emails? Even if they contains sentences like: "Remember our conversation about how you could triple your earnings this year?" Even if they start with: "Hi there! How have you been?" How much extraneous gumph must be floating (zipping might be a better verb there) around in cyberspace? How can we move for the junk?
