Al,

It's a GenX term for something that's generally unwanted or unsolicited.  The word is taken from the "meat" product of the same name from the Hormel company.

John, this is in no way a reflection on the content of your posts!  It is something with our spam filter.

Hi Barry and All,

Please excuse the ignorance, but I would like to know what a Spam is. In
simple terms please for a simple person.

Thanks a lot.
