     In these groups, GG's crap are the only ones. My newsreader is   
   configured to notify that there's a multipart/alternative post (and   
   strips the alternative (HTML in this case) part), so they're easily   
   spotted.   
      
     In some other groups there are some other loons which post in HTML,   
   but they're few and far between.   
      
   (And there used to be (are?) some dedicated special-purpose groups where   
   HTML posts are welcomed/recommended/appropriate/.)
