I have  added a band-aid to CryoNet, which will help for awhile.
When postings from  an email address earn a reputation less than a
third, the familiar  "reputation too low" digest filtering will be
applied.  When the  reputation drops to one fifth, the subject line
will be filtered from the  digests, too.  (You have seen that already
in the Wed. Dec. 27  digest.)  Furthermore, there is a new "Abuse"
rating, which is far  worse than any of the others.

Expect further measures, as they are  needed.

Thank you, Kevin.  Cryonet has  indeed had a bit of low ebb due to a few 

individuals who have a (hopefully)  unique combination of high intelligence, 
skill 
sets, and pathological, perhaps  criminal, behavior and emotional patterns.
 
A future psych/medical tech may fix them...
 
But for now the best we can do is to stop them from spamming cryonet and  
ruining this forum.  
 
I add my voice to others who have already endorsed your right to protect  
Cryonet from "serial offenders."  This is not censorship, this is an immune  
response to protect the integrity of the medium.  

Thanks again for  the wonderful job you have done, and are continuing to do, 
with Cryonet.  
 
Happy Holidays to all.  Let's plan and work and make 2007 better for  all 
sentient creatures than 2006.
 
Warmly and Professionally Yours,
 
Rudi Hoffman CFP CLU ChFC
