'Spamalot' Subscribers to Get Spam ... a Lot

CrazyWingman writes "It looks like the list of e-mail addresses subscribed to the lists for the Broadway show 'Spamalot' has been nabbed by spammers. The New York Times is reporting that the list was posted on a page that could be found by looking at the source of other Spamalot webpages. All I have to say is that I hope the creators of the Spamalot website have been sacked."

  6. That programmer... by Faust7 · · Score: 4, Funny

    Mr. Stevenson said he had hired a programmer, whom he would not identify, to add the list sign-up function to the sites.

    But why? It's not like we'd want to bludgeon, or bitchslap, or ambush, or lynch the programmer.

    "Perhaps the bronze sculptor in Washington state that you linked to isn't the same person as the New York web designer."

    Probably you are right. Perhaps we could send the Washington state sculptor to New York to arrange an "unfortunate smelting accident" for the web designer. I certainly would if he tarnished my name.
