Y'know, it's fine if you think that Bruce's mail was inappropriate for the
list, and there's nothing wrong with saying so; but claiming that a message
that isn't selling anything is UCE, and attempting to enforce against a
member of the community an advertising policy that daily goes unenforced
against thousands of more deserving souls, just makes you sound like an
asshole and an idiot.
