An example of a variant on this method is in Miscellany right now. I've already reported it to Anu so it may not still be there when you read this, but it is a post by Maryanne which reads in full:Quote:What was Ben Schott's reason for writing Schott's original miscellany? I need to know urgently, and also any other facts about the book.
It was followed by some links to various commercial sites. This post was an initial post so it doesn't exactly fit my definition above, but spam nonetheless.
