Chain (e)mail ...

["Rob, grandpa of Ryan, Trevor, Devon & Hannah" <rmslade () shaw ca>]

Yeah, it's still around.  I received a message with one of those standard 
platitudinous postings today.  (At least it didn't have a huge slideshow attached.)  
It had a rather interesting closing:

------- Forwarded message follows -------
next time if you get a 'forward', don't think that you've been sent just another
forwarded joke, but that you've been thought of today and your friend on the
other end of your computer 

If you FORWARD this email please remove my email address and forward using 
BCC only.  
------- End of forwarded message -------

In other words, a justification for filling your mailbox with this facile tripe, and 
please follow these instructions for shallow and unconvincing tricks to try and 
fool people into thinking this chainletter isn't a chainletter  :-)

(The person who sent me the message hadn't followed the instructions  :-)
