Am I the only one with a delete key on my keyboard?  Wait a minute, I have 
a backspace and a delete key.  That's two ways to delete messages that I 
don't want to read.  What's this?  If I right click, it says 'Delete 
Message'.  That's a third way.  Hold on a second, if I click on the message 
I don't want to read, and then click the little icon that looks like a 
trashcan, the message also gets deleted.  And what's this?  Boy those 
programmers sure are lazy.  I can actually make a filter that automatically 
deletes all messages containing the words 'waco'.  That way it doesn't even 
look like anyone is talking about waco at all.  Just topics that are 
related to Pynchon, like conspiracy theories, indoctrination of the public 
through propaganda, and stuff like that.
