Re: I think the name of my next project will be RTFM
I made a 'rule' that deleted messages *from* mi_ga@o-o.lt but that didn't
work, since the messages are from rhizome. After poking around a bit, yes, I
found the option to delete messages where "mi_ga@o-o.lt" is in the header.
And that seems to be working. However, I see the 'rule' is deleting not only
messages sent by mi_ga@o-o.lt but the odd other message as well that is a
reply to mi_ga@o-o.lt. So I guess such a filter is, by its nature, not only
going to delete messages from whomever but also messages that reply to that
whomever? Recursively? Would be nice if it could quite specifically delete
*only* messages from the specified spammer.

Bush administration 'secretly plans air strikes' as it seeks regime change
in Iran
By Raymond Whitaker
Published: 09 April 2006
"The Bush administration has sent undercover forces into Iran, and has
stepped up secret planning for a possible major air attack on the country,
according to the renowned US investigative journalist Seymour Hersh.
While publicly advocating diplomacy to stop Iran from pursuing a nuclear
weapon, Hersh reports in the next issue of The New Yorker magazine that
"there is a growing conviction among members of the United States military,
and in the international community, that President Bush's ultimate goal in
the nuclear confrontation with Iran is regime change"....

interesting. yet so much in art is organized around tribe and nation.
grants, for instance, are almost always tribal or regional or national. very
hard to find financial support for one's work at those 'higher' levels even
if the work operates on those levels and disregards the tribal and national.
not impossible, though, i presume, and perhaps finding a way to make it so
is part of the long journey in the art.
