Hi David ... for practical realities of the issue try:

http://www.SpamCop.net
http://www.earthlink.net/internet/security/spam/resources.html
http://spam.abuse.net

It also might be good to get on spammers lists. I can
almost guarantee it will happen if you visit:

http://www.affiliatesupport.com

Please, please be careful about clicking.

As a law student you have chosen a challenge for your paper
and the challenge of defending UCE. I certainly hope you
will continue your subscription to this group. I'd like to
hear more.

Last, Spam is a huge, growing cancer. If you are serious,
you need to receive the object of your research.

Most Best

Sharon
