как непосредственный участник событий скажу что не погорячился и отвечаю за свои слова черная PR-компания - это было что-тоКхм... Вот насчет "Метро" вы погорячились. Адназначна. Это я вам как экс-главред говорю."Г@вно" и т.п. - это конкуренты - журнал "Метро" постарались, благодаря чему еще выше подняли интерес, идиоты. Говорю не голословно, потому как достаточно осведомлен.

Больше схожа мнением на счет Гуранги со Стю .
Это продукт питания какой-нить : шоколад , мороженное, сок или проч.
Какие кришнаты ? Ими даже близко не пахнет

Письмо утром пришло, вот весь текст:
--
Call out Gouranga be happy...
Gouranga Gouranga Gouranga
That which brings the highest happiness!
--
В переводе что-то вроде того же, что и по городу было расклеено.
И без всяких ссылок.
Обратный адрес nitaigouranga@aol.com
т.е. имя осмысленное, не как обычно у спамеров.

Who is Gouranga?
In 2004 and 2005 we received several spams that looked just like the following, sent to several of our email addresses. We didn't have a clue what it was supposed to mean and got annoyed enough about it that we sent abuse complaints to the provider used for sending the spam.
After another recent spam of this type in January 2005 we did some research. Here is what we found:
Gauranga (Gouranga) was a nickname of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, a monk in India who 500 years ago founded the branch of Hinduism that during the 20th century was brought to the west by ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness, better known as the "Hare Krishna" sect).
Years ago the name Gouranga appeared on motorway bridges in the North of England and on various stickers, causing people to wonder what it was all about. It has been rumoured that the Scottish branch of ISKCON has been trying to spread the name of their spiritual ancestor through a guerilla-type campaign. We have no idea if there is any substance to these rumours. It's equally plausible that this is just somebody's sense of humour. Hare Krishna-related jokes in popular culture are not uncommon, such in the movie "Airplane" or the "Gouranga" references in the Playstation videogame "Grand Theft Auto".
We have contacted ISKCON Scotland by email about the spam but didn't get a reply from them. Instead we were contacted by another person who claimed to have sent all these spams. When asked for his/her motives, he/she replied:
Hello Joe,
I am just very enthusiastic person, who wants everybody to be happy.
))
Which is not the worst of motives, I suppose

По этому примеру я тоже обратился к Google.

И узнал, что это известный спам, даже предлагаются настройки для антиспамерных фильтров.
Анекдот в тему:
Одна женщина получила столько спама с предложением увеличить размер полового члена, что решилась. Но не на операцию. Она сменила мужа.
