    3. Tony, I am really sorry that this went to the Laws list. I did not realize when I sent it that it went everywhere it did. I sent a message immediately, and redid my computer. I ALWAYS check the hoax list on these things, and just didn't -- I guess it was the date that got me. Anyway, I apologize again, and will unsubscribe from the list.
