Below is the URL of an excellent web site for learning all about "urban legends", "virus hoaxes", "chain letters", and much, much more. The site is maintained by Cyndi Howells, who is one of the fine people who keep RootsWeb running. It is important that users of mailing lists understand about off-topic postings to the lists. We have all heard about the young boy in England who was collecting business cards (NOT !!). We have all heard about various "virus warnings" (UNTRUE !!). We have heard about everything from Red Velvet Cakes to Chocolate Pudding. Now the most recent one is about "Kidney Theft". This last one went around about a year ago and has evidently surfaced again. IT IS A HOAX CHAIN-LETTER !!! So before you receive such a letter and decide to send it to every person you know AND to every mailing list to which you subscribe, CHECK IT OUT FIRST !!!!! Go to this URL: http://www.CyndisList.com/internet.htm NEVER SEND AN OFF-TOPIC POST TO A MAILING LIST WITHOUT FIRST ASKING PERMISSION OF THE LISTOWNER !!!!! DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS EMAIL HERE ON THIS LIST !!!!! If you MUST discuss it, send to my private email address: sgtgeorg@concentric.net SgtGeorge (George W. Durman, Listowner)
