This is AWESOME Matt! Thank you!

And there are even some there that I might try now, that were probably
announced buried in a thread I wasn't interested in. Good work!

	Oh my, yes.  Even though I have a number of other projects hosted 
on my web site, the stats for the primary mirror alone show that I've 
had 190,000 downloads of files in that directory (about 14% of the bytes 
shipped by that mirror, not bad considering I have .iso images there too).
	Cheers,
	- Bill

If you read the web page it says who made them

Bigevil is by Chris Santerre, and is a semi-automated URI blacklist based 
on Chris's spam and spam people point out to him.

sa-blacklist is by William Stearns, and is a From-address blacklist set of 
people who spammed him, etc. (note: a typo on the wiki calls him William 
Stearn)

sa-blacklist-uri is also by William Stearns. It's a URI based list similar 
to bigevil, but it's based on the domains listed in sa-blacklist.

Stearns has a readme for his lists at:

What's the difference between bigevil and sa-blacklist/sa-blacklist-uri 
other than who created them?  I always see talk of bigevil here but this is 
the first I've heard of the other two.  Is anyone using them?

Thx.
