Time-travel Spammer Strikes Back

HopToit writes "Robby Todino is apparently upset about being outed a couple months ago as the source of all those wacked messages about 'Dimenstional Warp Generator Needed.' According to Wired, someone has pulled a major joe-job spam attack (forged 'From:' lines) on three popular sites in retaliation for making fun of Todino's goofy search for alien technology. Robby, if you're out there, you have ceased to be amusing."

    Someone needs to get that guy on Coast to Coast AM, with Art Bell/George Noory stat.

    The very fact that we received spam proves that time travel is impossible: If it was possible, someone would invent it, travel back in time and beat up all the spammers so that they would never have sent any in the first place.

    Would you like mail from president@whitehouse.gov, or maybe brittany@spears.com?
    No, but I'd be happy if you'd forge mail from one to the other. It might keep them both occupied long enough for the country to emerge from the half-flushed toilet bowl we're sitting in right now...

    a hundred million years or so and will continue only for a few hundred million more - quite a small window in the history

    Statements like this are why I never lend money to anybody in Astronomy or Geology.
