you should provide a README stating that the messages that "seeded"
the wrong categories must be reverse-applied before using this
script.  if the user omits this step, the words appearing both in good
and in wrong categories wouldn't get accounted for, leading to false
results.  it is not the same (i) deleting mentioning of some
categories in the database versus (ii) "subtracting" a message from
it.

i hope i've made myself clear :)

other than that this is a nice little utility.
