.:SPEWS doesn't list 63.220.32.0-63.220.38.255 anymore. It's clear from

.:1 and Level 2 SPEWS listings, in any case. Again, stupidity seems

But zealots (*cough*) have this tendency to keep spouting the technical 
merits of their personal software cause, loudly, long after no one's 
listening.  This is no less stupid, and probably just as damning.

Now, if you'd care to explain this difference to us, or what it means to 
you, or how you use it, I might find something interesting in the 
mechanism and actually read it.  But you're not even giving us a 
two-sentence executive summary, just this venom and geek elitism.
