OK, let's.

Websters defines "spam" (noun) as "unsolicited usually commercial e-mail
sent to a large number of addresses."

Note the "usually" and then grab your ouija board to argue with Daniel
Webster.

How 'bout this?

"Usenet spam is aimed at "lurkers", people who read newsgroups but rarely or
never post and give their address away. Usenet spam robs users of the
utility of the newsgroups by overwhelming them with a barrage of advertising
or other irrelevant posts. Furthermore, Usenet spam subverts the ability of
system administrators and owners to manage the topics they accept on their
systems." http://spam.abuse.net/overview/whatisspam.shtml

And please, don't show any more ignorance by continuing to shout.

Thanks!
