Interesting text content in the new spams

Looks like there are some pretty impressive self-learning systems out  
there. I'm enclosing the content of the text part of a new spam. I  
think it's quite an interesting vocabulary that they are using,  
presumably from their own trained ham database. This spam got through  
four different checks (postfix + blacklisting, spamassassin,  
spambayes and Opera's own spam system)! Given them a couple of years  
and we can finally close slashdot et al. and actually start reading  
this stuff! ;-)

I hear the New York Times isn't too picky about who they hire.

Someone could create an army of ghost writers and sit back and
collect the paychecks.
