(European readers mainly)

whois is a very useful tool for desperate postmasters fighting spam at
the originating ip level... and just a few moments ago I ran a whois
query against the radb whois server for a wannabe spammer coming from
202.156.211.73 .  I found a detail in the whois output hilarious
--reminded me of Lucky Luke comix by Goscinny and Morris.  See if you
can spot the connection to the comix (hint at the end :)

Hint: what exactly is the role of StarHUB internet? :)

I bet that this is on purpose, and that is why I send it to the group...
