Spam turning 30
well of all things that turn another year old this ain't one of them that you look the most forward to. 30 years ago on this particular date Gary Thuerk who was working on a Us Goverment Computer sent a Sales Mail to 393 users offering a crazy deal and the then unknown thing some 15 years later called Spam was born. the Irony is that now, Thuerk is working at places that protect against Spam. back in the day i only knew the name Spam from being in a Can and the real Spam in cyber Space is just as awful as that mess that is in a can. Spam ain't never gonna go away and this turkey is the reason for it. I mean of all the things to be remembered for, Spam starting on the Internet ain't something to tip your cap to. i spend at least 10-15 minutes a day deleting all that extra mess in my junk mail and there needs to be something to truly eliminate it.
