I concur. I'm quite happy with my current position, but these posting do
give me a better feel for the Boulder job market (and dare I say, what
interesting projects other Boulder companies are working on?). Beyond
that, I inclined to afford some consideration to the fact that almost all
of these posting are (unlike the job spam in c.l.p.m) the result of some
effort to locate an appropriate forum & receptive audience. If they've got
the clue to locate boulder.pm, contact Walter courteously, and post
opportunities that are directly relevant I'm inclined to grant them the 2
seconds and 5 keystrokes it takes me to process them. We could even
request adding a JOB: leader in the title to make it easier to procmail
them out of sight and out mind for those who'd rather not see them. 

It's rare enough for recruiters (much less anyone else) to exert
themselves to go a good job with email contacts. Let's not penalize them
for it.
