I'm reporting most spam, but I don't have high hopes Google cares. We
could start a new group (non-usenet Google Groups allow message
removal), but I guess most people would rather simply plonk GG posts.

Perhaps we could find a way to tag spam threads that would auto-plonk
those threads in our preferred reader (email, newsreader and
Greasemonkey killfile)? This has the drawback that spam posted to ham
threads would be hard to block...

P.S.: I prefer posting from Google Groups, I'd rather avoid posting at
all than having to use a different client...
