	I'm sympathetic to folks that have software issues, as should
anyone who is a consumer of any flavor of software.  I believe
they're one of those social networking things, like orkut,
linkedin, etc..  (but it doesn't tell you who invited you, which
imho is bunk, ie: spam).

	Taking the middle of the road, folks can email me in private
if they think that pingsta is still spamming them and we should nuke
them.
