I have decided that my opinions don't matter much in the scheme of things on our war with Iraq. I'm not going to say much else about it, other than to link to pieces that say what I think but in ways better than I could. Here is Robert Wright in Slate suggesting what might be long term consequences of the Iraqi war, which I found in PNH's Electrolite. Bayesian filters. I found a reference to rules that fix that and added them in to my local rules file. For the record for you SA users, here is what I did:
meta TOO_MANY_UA ((USER_AGENT_MOZILLA_UA + USER_AGENT_PINE +
USER_AGENT_KMAIL + USER_AGENT_VM + USER_AGENT_MACOE +
USER_AGENT_GNUS_XM) > 1)
describe TOO_MANY_UA Doesn't make sense to have more than one UA
score TOO_MANY_UA 18
<p>
meta TOO_MANY_UA2 ((USER_AGENT_MOZILLA_UA + USER_AGENT_PINE + USER_AGENT_KMAIL +
USER_AGENT_VM + USER_AGENT_MACOE + USER_AGENT_GNUS_XM) > 2)
describe TOO_MANY_UA2 Way too many user agents
score TOO_MANY_UA2 40
</p><p>
meta TOO_MANY_UA3 (TOO_MANY_UA && REFERENCES)
describe TOO_MANY_UA3 Lots of user agents with references
score TOO_MANY_UA3 12
</p><p>
meta TOO_MANY_UA4 (TOO_MANY_UA && IN_REP_TO)
describe TOO_MANY_UA4 Lots of user agents with a "reply to"
score TOO_MANY_UA4 12

Running some of this spam back through gives nice high spammy scores, so this seems to fix the issue. The spammer world is an ongoing arms race.
