Murakami the master of dream lit?

With this in my spam folder, I wonder. I have no idea what the purpose of this is other than either a) denial of service on my SMTP service or b) a way to test for active e-mail addresses, but why such a large amount of text? I mean, Exchange figured out that this was junk and canned it, so it's not beating my junk mail filter in any way.

Hippies and conspiracists (not always a distinct pair of entities) may conjecture that it's an undercover operation in effect, either Russian Mafia or the CIA. Or that it's some means of taking control of our minds and we need to start wearing our tin-foil contact lenses. Yet others will claim that it's a way to control a network of surreptitiously installed software on machines that don't ordinarily have SMTP servers on them, but that's just a load of old tosh - there are much better ways to do that. Or it could be Aliens (extra-terrestrial, or just not from Montana) learning English.

Or it could simply be AOL clogging up mail and mail-relay servers around the world to better justify charging for spam-free e-mail.

If I have to be a racist, I want to be a conspiracist.

I can't wait for the next installment:
