I imagine that spammers trawl the web for text to randomise and put  
in their emails.  They are after all used to trawling the net for  
email addresses already.  If each email is different then it will  
foil some of those spam detection systems that compare emails and any  
that use language systems will also have problems.

It occurs to me that things like wikipedia are marvellous resources  
for spammers but then I suppose so is google.
