   words floating about:   
      
   >#1: It isn't "spam". It is an advertisement for a stamp show, soemthing that   
   >falls well within what is normally acceptable in a STAMP newsgroup.  Yes,   
   >yes, provided it doens't have a Charter that specifically prohibit such   
   >advertisements.   
      
   When the poster ID's it as "spam this" ... I'd vote for SPAM.   
      
   The rest is true a plain ad for the show would have been ON topic.   
      
   >#3: It was so obviously hype as to even get through to the most stupid and   
   >naive of readers. "Actionable"?   
      
   Guess you haven't been up on eBay to see the dummies buying high priced oots   
   - or those on RCSD constantly asking how much the US 3¢ issue is 'worth'.   
      
   Yes, it would be "actionable", as the persona of "spam this" is supposedly   
   'representing' the show. Look around at all the silly (to sane people) law   
   suits, then think on it!   
      
   It started as a reply 'in kind' but then  I do love to tweak such posters   
   ...
