Based on the forward you sent me, you still have a bit to learn about
the Internet. Let me take this opportunity to give you a brief
education. 

1. Please do not pass on chain letters. There never has been, and never
will be a reward for forwarding an email message.

2. Virus warnings tend to be hoaxes. Do not forward them.  Anyone who
would heed your warning is probably already protected.  Everyone else
will just ignore you anyway.

3. Please be selective with the jokes that you pass on.  Here is the
acid test: Would you bother telling me this joke in person?  Jokes that
dont pass this test should probably be kept to yourself. If it is good
enough, tell it to me the next time I see you. I would rather spend time
with you than be another name on your distribution list.

4. Forwards are never a reliable source of information.  Unusual
reports, especially those involving major corporations, are urban
legends. If it were legitimate news, it would be carried by the
mainstream media. Scary or outlandish stories are usually nothing but
fiction. Enjoy reading them, but keep them to yourself.

5. Do not buy anything from spammers. NEVER! Don't even go to their
websites. If you know what headers are, hunt down the bastards and get
their accounts cancelled. Never reply to a spam, even just to ask to be
removed from their mailing list. They wont take you off, but instead
they will put your name on the valid list.

6. Never run any programs or open any executable attachments that you
recieve in an email. If it ends in exe, bat, or com, you should delete
it. It is usually safe to open zip files, but be suspicious of any
contents.

7. Dont be a spammer. Multi level marketing schemes do not intrigue me.
I am not interested in becoming part of your downline.  Whether it is
vitamins, herbs, long distance, magnets, distributed processing, or
get-paid-to-surf-the-net I will never sign up. Seriously, I have lost
friendships over this kind of stuff. Dont even start.

8. Investment advice comes from professionals, not open web-boards or
unsolicited email.

9. Anything that promises an outrageous salary for working at home is
bogus. If the opportunity was so good, they would be turning away
applicants, not begging for them.

10. This is the last forward that you will ever send. The next time
someone forwards you junk, send this to them. Lets break the chain one
link at a time.
