Do people want the "right" to decide whether to absorb or dismiss spam 
(messages which are not within the scope of a maillist)?  I've never 
heard anyone clamoring for spam.

Donald has been posting many of his messages to both this list and the 
elections-reform list, even though it is extremely rare for a message to 
fit within the scope of both lists.  (The lists were designed to have 
complementary scopes.)  So he's probably been spamming quite a bit, 
though it would take scrutiny of the messages before one can reach a 
definite conclusion.
