Subject: Hello

Hmmm... this is a high tech chain letter so to speak.  I am sending it on to
you because you are really the only one who hasn't seen it yet that I know
of on the internet.  I am planning to submitt part of it to the ORI
newsletter though, so.. I hope that in combination with sending it to you
will hold off the bad luck...   It is actually interesting and I did get a
giggle out of it.

Talk with you later. AB
