Left for a while because of the junk(sh-t) being posted....it's worse.(spam and the maple idiot) It seems to be getting out of hand. Even blocking sender doesn't help because they change there address. I would love to send them a nice little present that would mess up there computers for a while...oh well just wishful thinking lol

The USENET has a large amount of spam coming through Google these days, from all over the world (think globalism). You can see that if you view header information.
Filtering out all posts from Google would remove 90% of the spam and a some regular posters.
A very (and maybe the only) useful filter is Ignore Subthread (to ignore a thread branch). You can use the same filter to ignore a whole thread or ignore any branch in a thread. I purchased Agent 4 but haven't used it yet because I like Xnews so much. Agent is supposed to have Ignore Subthread. Other readers do too I think. Used to be AOL users would mess up that filter but they aren't allowed to post through AOL anymore so that's no problem. It works for both content and author filtering.
Good luck and have fun.
Unfortunately this is the world we live in. I consider your post some what of a crap/junkish post also.
I'd be happy just to send them a box that leaked (courtesy of the neighbors dog).
