Good...sigh;
I'm sure that you, as myself, use a decoy email account when you sign up 
for a lot of things, which has helped.
But the spoofers and the spammers and the virii get more adroit with

It's a lot like biology really, with a proliferation of symboints and 
parasites and the whole 9 yards.
Wouldn't it be a lot simpler if they'd just send us the money and get on 
with it?
