Meta Tag Stuffing

What I'm referring to here is when people throw in thousands of the same exact keyword into their meta tags.

For example, the following website is trying to rank well for "books".

<META NAME="KEYWORDS" CONBOOK="books, BOOKS,Books, books books book supplies, books, books book, book, Book, BOOKS, books,Books,books, BOOKS,Books, books books book supplies, books, books book, book, Book, BOOKS, books,Books,books, BOOKS,Books, books books book supplies, books, books book, book, Book, BOOKS, books,Books,books, BOOKS,Books, books books book supplies, books, books book, book, Book, BOOKS, books,Books books, BOOKS,Books, books books book supplies, books, books book, book, Book, BOOKS, books,Books">

This is obviously ridiculous. Google doesn't use Meta Tags when ranking websites. Google WILL penalize it, but it WILL NOT help you... so, why would anyone do something like this? Stay away from it.
