Bravo! Now that is SPAM done right! A well written
charming letter, seemingly written personally to us IDLers.
No spelling mistakes, no grammar errors, clearly
Chris "Spammy" Duncan put a lot of effort into it.
And the message: an subtle offhand remark to inspire interest
in his previous book, and an unabashed request that other people
write Chris "Cut and paste" Duncan's sequel for him.
This gentleman has taken the time to trim all crossposting info
from the headers, probably painstakingly spamming each newsgroup
individually by hand. You just don't see that kind of spammanship
anymore!
Well done Spammy Duncan, well done!
Regards,
Spammy Davis Jr.
PS the least you can do is post all the entertaining stories
to your webpage.
