This has been going around for a while. It's probably an urban legend. A tip to everyone--whenever you're asked to pass it on to everyone, DON'T! Most of them are hoaxes or someone trying to "farm" e-mail addresses.
<http://www.snopes.com/rumors/ups.asp> I have been around long enough to realize lbrown59 doesn't have a clue, usually just cute one line commentary.I believe he is going for mass postings for quantity....not quality. I'm sure he will have one for this to, but it is my opinion.Have a good one!
Cindy, I agree with you. This is a board for exchanging information, not for posting all the spam e-mail he gets. I guess he doesn't have a life or a clue. I try hard to keep spam out of my e-mail, then I have to come here and see all the same crap.
Hedwig, you've nailed him. Cindy, you're in good company -- I'm his other donkey. I doubt he even read your link, and I'm not surprised he didn't at least acknowledge the fact that he's posted nonsense again. Doc
