sorry about the last one.

  Please read the following message that was sent to me from a friend.
As a member of the Internet community, I feel that it is important for
you to read this message and and follow the directions printed.  THIS IS
NOT CHAIN MAIL - I don't participate in that kind of stuff.  I apologize
if you have already received this message from someone else.  Catch you
all later.

To whoever may read this,

This is not a typical chain letter, in that by passing it on to as
many people as you can, you are taking part in what may yet become the
world's biggest practical joke. The U.S. Government has recently
passed an act which enforces censorship on the Internet. A group of
Internet users has now come together to kick back at this oppression,
and have a bit of fun at the same time.

The aim of this exercise is to re-establish the United States as "The
Land of the Free", not a fascist state where freedom of speech and
thought are curtailed. Communist Russia fell as a result of such limits
being placed upon the minds of the general populus. On receiving this
letter, please pass it on to as many friends or e-mail lists as you can.
We predict that if everybody copies the letter to 5 other addresses, by
February 29th 1996, this letter should have reached in excess of 2 million
people. That's when the fun begins........

On February 29th, please send the message:

"Dear Mr. President,
Do you remember this:"

And afterwards enclose the pre-typed copy of the Bill of Rights.  By
sending the letter on the date above, you will contribute to either
one huge petition for freedom, or else lead to a crash of the
whitehouse server.

Send all letters to: [e-mail]

Remember that solidarity is the key to success !!!!!
