Number Crunching

On rec.arts.sf.fandom a certain poster is inclined to make what I suspect are somewhat exaggerated claims about the amount of emails, spams, etc. he receives, how much time he spends deleting them, etc. etc.

I suspect that he has never analyzed his figures rigorously. But someone else has:

I wonder if we should ask for similar proof to back up future claims...

I think it was because he was quite, er, pro-active and made himself rather unpopular with some of the early spammers - and hence made sure his address would be on every CD they sold.
