This is a newsgroup, not a forum, and there is no moderator.

While there are some Usenet groups that are actually moderated, most of
them--including this one--are not. The only solution is to ignore the posts,
because most of the posters' identities are also false/forged.

Heh, this is not a moderated newsgroup nor is it a "forum". Go to
rec.food.recipes if you want to post recipes and never have any interaction
nor get a reply. Otherwise, block out spammers and scammers and wade in
with the rest of us.

Your first post here and all you can write is an off topic comment to the
non-existent moderator in an unmoderated newsgroup. Go back to lurking.

Under the Google Groups Profile tab he is identified as having posted
249 times to rfc. The chance that he doesn't know rfc is unmoderated
is nil. Looks like just blowing off steam. -aem

I saw him coming. Two days ago, my copy of LurkerAlert started showing
his name in red. Yesterday it started flashing. That's usually a sign
that someone is about to introduce himself to a newsgroup with a silly
first post.

This is far from his first post here. Ted Campanelli has posted to
rfc longer than you or anyone who's joined this thread so far except
me.

The moderator is a drunk and pays little attention to what goes on. The job
pays $65k a year. Interested?

Ted shuffled out of his cave and grunted these great (and sometimes not
so great) words of knowledge:

Sorry. I did not realize the groups were not moderated. I am just
getting tired wading through ads for Nike shoes, pocketbooks, sex pills,
etc. to find the food related items.

It's not just Google, Steve. It's better (at least for me) to filter by
keywords.

Well excuse the hell out of me. I only keep a few hundred messages in my
system, which is about a week, and there was nothing in that time. I don't
recall any input from him.

Yes he has posted here before, IIRC. But I don't think he goes back
to the early to mid 90s, which was when I started coming here. I could
be wrong on that.

However it is easy to see from the posting profile on google groups,
as to when folks started posting, at least with the names they use
now. I haven't checked out his, not that it really matters very much.

OB food: I am trying to think of one, but I am coming up short..LOL.
I still have half a pot of chicken and dumplings to eat...

Still trying to cook from the pantry these day, and not make many
food purchases... This is part of a personal challenge to myself, to
keep my food budget to as little as I can every week, just to see if I
can do it, and still eat well and healthily.

In the fridge I still have a whole cabbage, which will last a bit
longer, a good sized bag of zucchini, which does need to be cooked
soon in some fashion, and a cauliflower which also needs to be cooked
soon. I just used up most of my celery, and all of my Italian Parsley,
at least I think I did. I have to go through the vegetable drawers to
see what I am overlooking. The freezer is still full of meat...and
various ingredients.

Agreed. The CABAL will give you 24 hours to take care of this. If you
don't, you will be stripped of your title of "MODERATOR", your computer
will be forcibly removed and you will never again be allowed to use a
computer.

It's all up to you, now.

I have a lot of variety in the freezer right now. Beef short ribs,
quite a few pounds of pork country style ribs, two good sized pork
shoulders, ground beef, boneless chicken breasts, a few whole
chickens, chicken thighs, boneless chicken thighs, a rack of lamb from
TJs that Koko left me, and a few packages of frozen seafood (those
will go to make a quasi-authentic cioppino sometime in the next month
or so), and I don't remember what else. Oh, and some frozen Spanish
chorizo that was left here after the cook-in.

I am not going to cook the cabbage just yet....and when I do, I am
leaning towards more of a veggie dish/salad/slaw. While I like soup,
I am not really in the mood for it right now.

The zucchini and cauliflower need to be cooked first. I have in mind
to try an Ina Garten recipe which is zucchini sauteed and then
sprinkled with Parmesan. I am also thinking of something like a
zucchini gratin... The cauliflower I could roast, but I am in the
mood for something different...

I hear ya Ted. The worst offenders are actually some of the regulars...
that's more annoying to me than the drive by spam.
I don't mind "thread drift" but the enormous amount of off topic threads
started from the get go *is* annoying.

I decided to try a reverse tactic...to do the thread drift thing, but
to drift it back to food. Probably won't work...but what the
hell...LOL.

GG shows that over the last year (that's as far back as I checked) he's
posted once or twice per month on average.

I never see those in here. Neither do many others. Use a feed that's
adequately filtered.

I also mentioned filtering Gropers in another post to the thread, as
well as using a cleaner feed.

As for the mix:

1. If they're from GG *and* trigger the usual bulk mail filters at
news.individual.net (and other well-filtered servers) then the servers
would, of course, dump them and they wouldn't get as far as local client
GG filtering.

2. If they're from GG but *don't* trigger server bulk mail filters, then
local client GG filters would whack them.

And the way to filter posts from GG is, of course, to filter on their
*Message-ID" headers, not their email addresses, since many non-spammers
and other objectionables use a gmail address (but *all* GG posters have a
filterable GG string in their Message-ID headers).

And a lot of innocent posters with gmail accounts, too. This is a
stupid an attempt to filter GG posters as it has been the other times
you've tried to sell it. GG posters and gmail from addresses do NOT map
one-to-one. But GG posters and their identifiable Message-ID headers
DO. You may be a great cook and a fine person, but you're peddling
bullshit with this gmail filtering. The problem is googlegroups.

Because I don't *see* the spam, I don't know where it's from. So you
pointed out that *this* spam is GG spam. So NOW I know that it needs to
be locally filtered (i.e. that it's my local filtering that's killing
these and not server filtering), and we're discussing THAT. When new
information presents itself, the discussion changes to accomodate it. I
don't see a problem with this.

Do like I did, Ted. Filter out @gmail and you'll eliminate a lot of that
