More insanity from the Web
I just recevied by far the silliest chain-email spam.
In fact.. I'll include my reply to everyone who was left on that email.
As a coup de grace - I put a Link in the email to see how many people would click on it, and take them to this page. Now THAT is a science experiment!!
Of course, I've taken the extra step of blanking out everyone's lastname/email.
Because I care about other's right to privacy.

** MY REPLY **
OK... That's just silly.
Who's the "kid"?... Someone who thinks you can send an email into the ether, and it will actually do something constructive.
There's no truth to this email being part of a real science project.
- No tabulation
- No data collection
- No real source or resource pointing to the "origination"
It's just CHAIN-EMAIL SPAM.
OK, I digress... Everyone have fun forwarding this to all your "pals" on myspace. 8^))

Sorry, guys, it's quick and for a kid's school project! (And you are the ones I thought might follow through - either because you have kids, you like science, or you're just plain nice.) This is for a science fair project. If you could do this, I would appreciate it!
DON'T ASK, JUST PLAY! Copy and paste this entire letter into a new e-mail (PLEASE do NOT hit FORWARD), then read the list of names below.
If your name is on the list put a star* next to it. If not, then add your name (in alphabetical order), and do not put in a star. Send it to ten people and send it back to the person who sent it to you. Put your name in the subject box! You'll see what happens... It's kind of cool! Please keep this going. Don't mess it up.
***** I REMOVED THE "NAME LIST" TO KEEP THIS SHORT *****
