The solution is to reply immediately to these posts -- just add a
word or two -- and delete the irrelevant groups. Let the people who
care about the topic, however inane, fight it out on their own turf.

Wow, you are just MADE of stupid, aren't you?

"Genetically altering" a thread with removed x-headers = Good

How do you "genetically alter" the ORIGINAL posts headers? On every
newsserver in the world? Everything else WILL. NOT. WORK.
