    A phrase came to mind, and when I googled it, it turned out to be from Isaac Asimov's short short story A Loint of Paw., which I know I read many years ago.

    A criminal named Stein has embezzled $100,000 (the story was published in 1957, so run that through measuringworth.com. $1,080,000 going by the consumer price index for 2023). He then steps into a time machine and travels twenty years plus one day into the future, where he is promptly arrested.

    At trial, his defense contends that as the statute of limitations has now taken effect, he cannot be prosecuted. The judge rules in his favor, saying "A niche in time saves Stein".

    A little dark humor.

    Ralph has a lot in common with our spammer.

    On a crowded city sidewalk, a man suddenly collapses. There is a doctor among the onlookers. He makes his way to the side of the fallen man and examines him.

    The doctor shakes his head sadly. "I'm afraid this man has died. There's nothing I can do."

    A little old lady calls out, "quick, give him some chicken soup!" The doctor repeats what he had said, but again the old lady says, "so quick, give him some chicken soup!"

    The doctor is a little irritated now. He says, "madam, as I have already explained, this poor fellow has died. What good will chicken soup do?"

    The old lady responds "what harm?"
