      You'd have to be fairly gullible to believe something like that. Of course the correct response to such an email is best summed up by Nelson from the Simpsons. "ha ha" Michael :-) Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana

            I would say: sell your computer, stop using your broadband connection for SPAM (or should I say SCAM) and pay your cheomtherapy! Concussus surgo. When struck I rise.

                Does anyone know the origins of the term "SPAM" for junk e-mail? Does it come from the delectible homogonization of mechanically seperated hoof and tongue the military has come to know and love, or does it stand for something else? -- just wondering ;) Nitron _________________________________________-- message sent on 100% recycled electrons.

                  It comes from a Monthy Python scetch. A couple goes into a diner to eat just to find out that everything they can order contains spam (a ham product found in at least UK) - such as "Well, there's egg and bacon; egg sausage and bacon; egg and spam; egg bacon and spam; egg bacon sausage and spam; spam bacon sausage and spam; spam egg spam spam bacon and spam; spam sausage spam spam bacon spam tomato and spam" (see http://www.detritus.org/spam/skit.html[^]) and somehow this came to be the term for unsolicited mails that "spam" your mailbox. Cheers Steen. "To claim that computer games influence children is ridiculous. If Pacman had influenced children born in the 80'ies we would see a lot of youngsters running around in dark rooms eating pills while listening to monotonous music"
