How many killjoys does it take to ruin a good thread? One exchange2000.com If every stopped forwarding email around we might see less duplicates, but we would certainly miss some jewels. jb

Uh, did you number wrong or leave out #2? Edit: Forget it, there are two #4's.

Emidio, You write, "Those of us on Unix hells . . ." Is this a typographical error? I rather like my Unix shell. <g> <obligatory humor> Even though the market is tanking to dismal levels, I still sleep like a baby; I wake up every hour and cry. <disclaimer> Regrettably, I confess I have not been following this thread for quite some time and thus apologize if this is a rerun.

I'm sure these are mostly legends, BUT, I PERSONALLY KNOW somebody who PERSONALLY KNEW a friend who had a cousin (I can't rememer whether 2nd or 3rd) whose sister's girlfriend's older brother actually had a kidney stolen when he was on a trip to Thailand. He didn't wake up in a bathtub full of ice, he woke up in bed with this terrible hangover (must have been some exotic drug and a terrible pain, and when he finally got to the hospital they confirmed that a kidney was missing. But the legend is wrong on one thing. These kidneys aren't being stolen for the transplant market. Instead, these kidneys are being stolen .> .> .> .> .> .> .> .> .> .> .> .> .> .> .> .> .> when the aliens abduct these people and take them to their spaceships and steal their kidneys because the spaceship fluid filtration systems have broken down millions of light years from their home planets and they need to have kidneys to put in their living filtration units to clean their waste products, which is after all what kidneys DO. HONEST. I KNOW it's true. My friend's friend's cousin's sister's girlfriend's older brother wouldn't lie to me. These attempts to hide the truth behind these phony "it's all right nothing's wrong" web pages are PLOTS by the ALIENS and the people whose BODIES and MINDS they have TAKEN OVER!! DO NOT BELIEVE THESE DENIALS. THEY ARE LIES, LIES, LIES. WARN EVERYBODY!!! THE ALIENS ARE COMING. AND THEY'RE STEALING KIDNEYS!!!!!!!!
