    I agree 100%.
    Kill all the black lists. I've seen way too much money and time go down the drain because of false positives and appalling administration of black list services.

    The only black listing that works is local, and that takes way too much time to be cost effective in a lot of cases.

    When it comes to spam, more thought is required.

    I agree.
    ctrl-t, alt-l, http://slashdot.org is a lot easier than, alt-b, arrow-key-around, look at screen, enter, or worse use the mouse.

    Using bookmarks for sites you use regulary is slow.
