Chris,

some of it may be random spam, but most of this is too for random 
specific, it targets scientists, such as the CoolLED Life Sciences stuff 
or used lab equipment. As I said, so far it is low frequency but I had 
the impression that it is increasing (can't check, deleted most of it) 
and I was wondering where this may lead in the future.
