You can forward spam messages to SpamCop, but in order to do that, you need to register for their service. However, I like to look at the statistics page of spam I am about to report, to make sure that I'm not sending spam report mail to anyone who doesn't deserve to get it (such as legitimate people who were unlucky enough to be involved in the headers somehow). That way, only the people who need to know about the spam get the SpamCop mail.
I realize that most of you probably already know about this, but I am going to mention it anyways: if you're having problems with spam, you should go to SpamCop. They have a free service that you can use to report spam to the necessary network administrators via parsing the headers of the spam mail. Simply save a bookmark that they give you, and when you receive spam mail, go to that book mark, paste in the whole text of the spam mail (including headers) and click a button.
I know that it's hard to keep spammers from doing what they're doing due to their using different email addresses and hosts each time they send out some spam mail. But I have found that by using SpamCop regularly, the spam mails eventually stop coming to my inbox. And whether this means that they've been taken out of business or they're removed me from their spam list due to my being a thorn in their side - well, either is good enough for me.
one important thing to note is that if Christa McAuliffe, a civilian teacher, hadn't died aboard Challenger in 1986, the idea of civilians in space probably wouldn't be as big a deal as it is now. More civilians would have likely boarded shuttles during the following years, and gradually the civilian population would have become more comfortable with the idea of having civilians in space. When this happened, the average person would feel that space was within his or her grasp, and the space program would have experienced more interest and increased financial support.
the Russians, perhaps without meaning to, are again getting average people comfortable with the idea of civilians in space, which might not be such a bad thing - they don't have the stigma of the Challenger tragedy to deal with, and their efforts might foster increased interest in space programs here in the States.

when you pay someone $700 for some porcelain mice, you're pretty much getting ripped off whether or not you actually get the goods.
