I understand there will probably be a few false-positives, which I can live with. And, if you could include a SK plugin hook for hacking the severity of the shock (add a disclaimer if you need to), I would gladly send ANOTHER $15 for that. Excellent work!

Do you think it would be ok from a moral point of view to beat the crap out of spammers? *eg*

Please by all mean do, and it would be an honor to see Spam Karma in any way named in the making of such a grand project. I love music too much to ever let my voice be recorded on a digital support, but I will gladly contribute to the work by doing the house remix and possibly incorporate it into some next <a href="http://unknowngenius.com/blog/archives/category/harmonious-noise/mp3s/">mp3 mix</a> (or play it live, who knows ;) Go for it! Definitely let me know when you are done so I can link to it... This is simply bloody awesome!

Call me a weirdo, but I'm in the process of writing a drum & base track titled "Texas H**dem must die" (or something like that, asterikses to avoid your filter), would it be ok for you if I dedicate the song to spam karma=? Hell, I think you as our hero should actually sing the lyrics! ;-) Hey there…
