Terry et al at TI,

One good thing to instigate in this New Year would be an IT solution to the wretched spammers who are becoming ever more intrusive on this favourite site. Unlike many forums in other fields, the TI forum is special in that it has an extremely thoughtful, courteous and, above all, helpful bunch of contributors who are willing to give generously of their experience and skill.
I am afraid that, however keen, many who watch your sites before signing up, as well as we confirmed aficionados, will in the end just not bother.

I simply don't believe that ways to moderate/block this garbage don't exist and it is getting to be a nuisance.

I post this only with the most constructive intentions.
If it is not too late, happy, healthy New Year!

Martin T.
