Please explain how.  I think as an exercise it would be instructive to give an 
example of how a spoofing solution would be evaded (easily).  I agree that 
spoofing is a problem (I do not know how minor as I get any where from 3-6k on 
my small operation per day) those are only the ones I see so I will not 
extrapolate that to the rest of the group.  Others are dealt with by filters 
and I will extract some numbers and perform analysis on those.  I still get 
'spammed' and I am not sure whether any ONE solution will suffice and be 
workable or lead to wide-spread adoption.

Also, please address (if you are interested) the issue of framework and 
architecture in proving a solution set.  My thinking is Dave's paper on control 
points is a start.
