Personally, I can't see the point of it. Besides, it would only 
be a "me too" in the sense that other blOcklists (not blAcklists, 
as a rule) already carry them alont with the rest of the "stuff".
   I can't see/think of anything that would make me want to use 
it unless something changed and other lists weren't tracking 
them.  Besides, that's not the major source either, although 
they're all despicable.
