[xl7] Re: I'll Show You How To Make $100 In Just one day

Happily, spam has not been that much of a problem. However, responses 
to spam are another story. In the case of this one little item, my 
guess is that the replies have generated 50 - 100 times* the amount 
of text of the original post (including all the appended comments 
upon comments).

*just an estimate

Usually people just ignore spam, but perhaps the lure of making $100 
in a day invites comments.

Hmmmmmm. I just realized something ironic: after work today (where I 
make about $70.00 before taxes), I did a day trade which netted me 
$127.26 in profits. 

And, no, I didn't get the idea from any spam links. I think its a 
waste of everyone's time even talking about it--unless its really 
funny. Somewhere in the archives there are some threads in reply to 
spam that were outrageously funny IMO. I think one thread started 
with spam about "improving your performance" to which a whole bunch 
of comments related it to the Command Station. 

Sadly, I don't this this little item generated much humor.
