That's precisely my point.  I don't think it is profitable, and
therefore at a reasonable expense to us (one of us makes up a question
every couple of days) we can make the tracker an unprofitable target
for spammers, and probably avoid most spam.

There's ample evidence of malicious behavior by spammers who feel
threatened or thwarted, though.
