\_ Anyway, I'd thought it would be cool to make up a bunch of 1000
\_ unit RFQ's and send them off to various vendors.  

I thought it would be amusing to go around to all the 'free
newsletter' sites I could find and drop in the reporting address,
particularly since the address seemed to be tied to a real person.   

A truly evil/suspicious person would go through a proxy / proxy chain
before doing that though.  

It'd be better, I suppose, to write a program to do an autosubmit to
handle that.
