I always used to look around the house and ponder the possibilities.  What if I
spend my days designing soap dispensers or door handles?  What if I were the
one who sat down and actually designed cheap plastic cups?  I guess it's
reassuring to know there are far worse jobs out there.

Really, I wonder how many people are actually behind this spamming.  Is it just
a few bumps on a log who sit there all day writing out code:

for a in stolen_email_addresses:
     send_viagra_ads_to( a )

I guess it doesn't take much for one person to infect millions of computers, but
it's really hard to imagine people who can be responsible for this and still
live with themselves.
