JHD would work for spam too if _everyone_ did it.  Because there are a few 
(0.1%) that respond, it makes it profitable for spammers so they keep on 
going.  Increase the volume and that 0.1% becomes a larger number.

Don't feed the troll works if there is 100% compliance.  JHD would work if 
there was 100% compliance!
