Dunno if you've noticed it but one of the spamsters is mailing out a novel, 
three words at a time.  Each message subject starts with "Re:" followed by 
several upper case gibberish characters, a comma, and three words from a 
text.  One that caught my eye read...

Re: IMV, here styopa turned

Since "Styopa" is an unusual name I hoped that google would come up with 
the actual text for me.  At

http://www.kulichki.com/moshkow/BULGAKOW/master97_engl.txt_Piece40.06

it found a snippit of text including this paragraph.

     "Here  Styopa turned away from  the telephone  and saw  distinctly in the
mirror that stood in the front hall, and which the lazy Grunya had not wiped
for ages, a  certain strange specimen,  long as a pole, and in  a  pince-nez
(ah, if only  Ivan Nikolaevich had been there! He would have recognized this
specimen at once!). The  figure was reflected and  then disappeared.  Styopa
looked further  down the hall in alarm and was  rocked a second time, for in
the mirror a stalwart black cat passed and also disappeared."

Interestingly, shown the whole paragraph I would have recognized it as an 
excerpt from one of my favorite books -- The Master and Margarita by a 
Russian author named Mikhail Bulgakov.  It has the interesting distinction 
of being one of the few books banned both by the Vatican and the Kremlin.

Who says spam has no redeeming value?  Great literature -- three words at a 
time!!!
