Interestingly both of these addresses (and phone numbers in the second  
case) match the names given.  If they really are related to spam  
though, the actual people likely have no knowledge of the messages.   
Haven't recieved any message like these that I've noticed though I  
typically don't look closely at the content of spam I receive.  I  
prefer to do origin analysis instead.  If interested, see <gopher://thegrebs.com/0/spamstats.txt 
 > or <http://thegrebs.com/spam>.  The gopher url contains more data,  
the http one has graphs though.  There are a few more reports  
available at <http://spam.thegrebs.com/> I keep meaning to either re- 
do these or include the information in one or both of the other  
urls.... perhaps a future plug presentation on the tools I wrote to  
create these is in order.
