Open Source Attempt to End Internet Stupidity

This seems like a real grasp at the impossible, but some people have started something called StupidFilter.org. They hope that with the right combination of filters and rules-based processing, similar to spam detection engines, that sites allowing user participation will be able to catch human stupidity in the process and stop it before it gets posted. I don't know whether this is inspired, or an example of the evolutionary nature of stupidity and its ability to avoid deterrence.
