Happy 2007!
I am on vacation until Jan. 10, with limited internet access. Feliz ano nuevo, as they say here.
I would like to close out 2006 with a link to Annalee Newitz's musings on the state of spam: ("The Meaning of Spam"):
In any event, see you in 2007!

I spend an inordinate amount of time wondering why my spam looks the way it does. Until quite recently, I received about 20,000 spam e-mails every day. The poor little Bayesean filter in my Thunderbird e-mail program couldn't keep up and would routinely barf when confronted with such huge piles of crap from "Nuclear R. Accomplishment" with the subject line "$subject" and a message body full of random quotes from Beowulf.I recommend taking a break from these sorts of subjects, so they don't permanently weigh you down. In all seriousness, on this vacation I officially realized that I cannot survive for more than 24 hours without internet access. Depressing, but true.
In any event, see you in 2007!
