There's a new list in town everybody! It's pretty darn cool! It should work starting right now and I've copied the old distribution list to it. Nothing should change at all from your side of things, except messages sent to groop@groo.com will now have [Groop] at the front of the email. Plus, it archives everything, you can choose a digest, and there's a web-interface to it all at http://mailman.newdream.net/mailman/listinfo/groop which is super-cool. It automatically created passwords for everybody, so if you want to change your options, just get your password mailed to you by following the directions at that site! And let the groop rebirthal begin! Josh!

Do you have friends who forward you EVERY SINGLE chain email in existence? Well next time, respond with THIS! (if you've received this already, ummm, sorry!) -LS Whoever decided to create this note and forward it on should receive some type of humanitarian award. It says it all! --------------------------------------------------------- 1. Big companies don't do business via chain letters. Bill Gates is not giving you $1000, and Disney is not giving you a free vacation. There is no baby food company issuing class-action checks. Proctor and Gamble is not part of a satanic cult or scheme, and its logo is not satanic. MTV will not give you backstage passes if you forward something to the most people. You can relax; there is no need to pass it on "just in case it's true". Furthermore, just because someone said in a message, four generations back, that "we checked it out and it's legit", does not actually make it true. 2. There is no kidney theft ring in New Orleans. No one is waking up in a bathtub full of ice, even if a friend of a friend swears it happened to their cousin. If you are hell-bent on believing the kidney theft ring stories, see: http://urbanlegends.tqn.com/library/weekly/aa062997.htm And I quote: "The National Kidney Foundation has repeatedly issued requests for actual victims of organ thieves to come forward and tell their stories. None have." That's "none" as in "zero". Not even your friend's cousin. 3. Neiman Marcus doesn't really sell a $200 cookie recipe. And even if they do, we all have it. And even if you don't, you can get a copy at: http://www.bl.net/forwards/cookie.html Then, if you make the recipe, decide the cookies are that awesome, feel free to pass the recipe on. 4. If the latest NASA rocket disaster(s) DID contain plutonium that went to particulate over the eastern seaboard, do you REALLY think this information would reach the public via an AOL chain letter? 5. There is no "Good Times" virus. In fact, you should never, ever, ever forward any e-mail containing any virus warning unless you first confirm that an actual site of an actual company that actually deals with viruses. Try: http://www.norton.com and even then, don't forward it. We don't care. And you cannot get a virus from a flashing IM or e-mail, you have to download....ya know, like, a FILE! 6. There is no gang initiation plot to murder any motorist who flashes headlights at another car driving at night without lights. 7. If you're using Outlook, IE, or Netscape to write e-mail, turn off the "HTML encoding." Those of us on UNIX shells can't read it, and don't care enough to save the attachment and then view it with a web browser since you're probably forwarding us a copy of the Neiman Marcus Cookie Recipe anyway. 8. If you still absolutely MUST forward that 10th-generation message from a friend, at least have the decency to trim the eight miles of headers showing everyone else who's received it over the last 6 months. It sure wouldn't hurt to get rid of all the ">" that begins each line either. Besides, if it has gone around that many times we've probably already seen it. 9. Craig Shergold (or Sherwood, or Sherman, etc.) in England is not dying of cancer or anything else at this time and would like everyone to stop sending him their business cards. He apparently is no longer a "little boy" either. 10. The "Make a Wish" foundation is a real organization doing fine work, but they have had to establish a special toll free hot line in response to the large number of Internet hoaxes using their good name and reputation. It is distracting them from the important work they do. 11. If you are one of those insufferable idiots who forwards anything that "promises" something bad will happen if you "don't," then something bad will happen to you if I ever meet you in a dark alley. 12. Women really are suffering in Afghanistan, and PBS and NEA funding are still vulnerable to attack (although not at the present time) but forwarding an e-mail won't help either cause in the least. If you want to help, contact your local legislative representative, or get in touch with Amnesty International or the Red Cross. As a general rule, e-mail "signatures" are easily faked and mean nothing to anyone with any power to do anything about whatever the competition is complaining about. PS: There is no bill pending before Congress that will allow long-distance companies to charge you for using the Internet. Bottom Line ... composing e-mail or posting something on the Net is as easy as writing on the walls of a public restroom. Don't automatically believe it until it's proven false... ASSUME it's false, unless there is proof that it's true. Some of these emails with bogus rumors that have gone around have caused great harm to upstanding companies and their images. For instance, KFC, there is no way to grow chicken parts without growing the whole chicken. Now forward this to everyone you know or the program I just put on your hard drive while you read this E-mail will open up your CD-ROM and reach out and slap you upside the head!

It's folklore, or more precisely CyberLore. The letter that guy wrote was hilarious, and pretty much correct. I've often considered telling people who forward chain emails that they are jokes or even hoaxes... but it just doesn't feel right... Who am I to stop the dissemination of folklore, right?... well anyway, gotta stop before it becomes a rant... oh... btw... the guy (or girl as the case may be) who wrote the letter compares chain emails with writing on the walls in public restrooms. He is absolutely correct, and it's just as interesting. I've spent a lot of time walking around public shitters reading the writing on the wall... is that weird? Gotta bravely run away The Knight Who Says Cheesedip P.S. If anyone has any chain emails (or anything similar) they want to share with a dedicated student of CyberLore mail it to me privately.
