In that vein, and inspired by this discussion:

http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=62243&cid=5825606

I give you the script I occasionally use:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
for ($count=1; $count<=2000; $count++) {
    if ( ($count == 1) || ($count % 20 == 0) ) {
        print `lynx -dump
$ARGV[0]?YOU_FILL_MY_MAILBOX_WITH_UNSOLICITED_CRAP_AND_I_WILL_DO_THE_SAME_TO_YOUR_WEBLOGS`;
    } else {
        `lynx -dump
$ARGV[0]?YOU_FILL_MY_MAILBOX_WITH_UNSOLICITED_CRAP_AND_I_WILL_DO_THE_SAME_TO_YOUR_WEBLOGS`;
    }
    print "$count\n";
}


(ignore stupid Yahoo linewrapping...)

Note that you should probably only do this on a
connection with a high bandwidth limit (ideally
unlimited ;)  The "print every 20 instances" stuff is
for if I do it over SSH, so that my SSH traffic bill
doesn't go too high.

Just a suggestion...
