Does SPAM Peak on Wednesday?

danlor asks: "After installing a pretty good spam filter here at work, we noticed an interesting weekly trend in overall spam intercepts. They peak on Wednesday and trough o n Sunday. It is an almost perfect bell curve. We have gone over this quite a few times here, but cannot come to consensus on why this would be. Could Spammers really be God fearing? Why would Spammers have a 'hump' day?" Has anyone else noticed this trend?

    My friend,

    The fact that you spent time reproducing that graph in a Slashdot-friendly format concerns me. Perhaps I should take you out to a bar sometime and show you that there are things greater than the pleasure of a First Post - for instance; WOMEN. E-mail me and we'll make arrangements.

    yours in friendship,
    A. Diarrhea
