I'm not sure if this means a reduction in the spam e-mails we all get but according to this article... maybe!

If they stop them completely how will I ever enjoy the benefits of penis enlargement,breast enhancement, meeting real girls in my area? make millions working from home? ....now if only they'd stop with the faxes wasting my paper and tying up my fax lines with travel offers and health insurance for the self employed I could know the meaning of true happiness....

It's been going on for a long time. Because it does waste physical resources for the recipient, it was one of the first types of commercial harassment to fall under a federal law- if you send them a fax back requesting that you be removed from their list (or call them on the phone), they are *required* to stop. If not, document the continued junk. You can take them to small claims court, and collect a minimum of $500. See
http://www.junkfax.org
for more information.

As far as the original post... I was really hoping for a "smart bomb" strategic strike
