[LINK] Fwd: Subject: We Lost IT !!

[Jan Whitaker]

Now this is clever!!!  We lost our email list, so can you rebuild it for 
us?  You gotta admit, the logic and tactics these people use are really 
quite amazing!  And they justify it by the laws that are passed!!! 
<sigh>  Sorry to fill mail boxes with long post, but worth seeing to believe.
