Global Usenet filters eliminate that problem, and anyone that is really
upset with the excessive off-topic cross-posting can take advantage of
the filtering capability of their newsreader (including Google Groups).

What's a tad annoying is that these posters often will change his "from"
address to try to get around everyone's filters, but if you design your
filters carefully this can usually be solved.

You are not going to fix these persons core problems so try to be
compassionate and work around them.
