That is what I tried to indicate.
An exchange somewhere (I can't now find it) went something like:
God is dead - Nietzsche
Nietzsche is dead - God
Email is dead - Larry
To which I added that it will someday be
Larry is dead - Email
but it will get lost in somebody's spam sump.

Ex turpi causa non oritur actio -- Lawyer Latin for "No cause of action
may be founded upon an immoral or illegal act." which is my answer to
the If-you-don't-deliver-my-spam-I'll-sue-you crowd.
I am not a lawyer. And I have never been trained in Latin.
