That's uncalled for.
ORBS has stepped way over the line on numerous occasions. Instead of
"helping other people make their services better," they apply a
sledgehammer. If anyone started this war, it's ORBS.
As for the supposed benefits of ORBS and RBL and whatever else, I find
a good mailfilter or procmail script to be the most effective.
But this is all way off topic for this list.

There are no physicists in the hottest parts of hell, because the
existence of a "hottest part" implies a temperature difference, and
any marginally competent physicist would immediately use this to
run a heat engine and make some other part of hell comfortably cool.
This is obviously impossible.
