 Quote from article

"Many states, including California, have enacted laws aimed at cracking down
on unsolicited e-mail, whose topics can include products such as sexual
enhancers, "anti-aging" creams, weight-loss pills and heavily discounted
home loans. But Murray said his bill, effective Jan. 1, would be the first
to hold an advertiser liable along with the spam merchant.

"We think it is going to be the toughest bill in the nation," the senator
said Tuesday. "The beauty of this is you go after the advertisers. They are
fineable and attachable."

This I think is the best method of dealing with the SPAM. Go after the ones
who really are creating the cash flow. Don't know why it takes a recalled
Governor to figure this out. Fine and jail the companies that the SPAM is
selling should close the hole rather quickly :)))
