I have received from different mailling lists, a request to pass on a chain-letter from a person claiming to be a child who has brain cancer. This is a HOAX and (I believe) was propogated so that the originator could gather e-mail addresses for a less-than-honorable purpose. I checked it out at the "Make-A-Wish Foundation" home page, http://www.wish.org/ To quote them briefly: "Each day, the Make-A-Wish Foundation National Office and chapters receive hundreds of inquiries regarding chain letters claiming to be associated with the Make-A-Wish Foundation. As a matter of policy, the Make-A-Wish Foundation does not conduct these types of wishes-including Internet and e-mail requests. Below are the chain letters currently circulating around the world. . ." Before passing something on, it is a good idea to check it out - Just a thought Pat B
