[Esd-l] An evil thought

[John D. Hardin]

Hi, all.

I was helping someone at my work today who'd gotten the SULFNBK.EXE
hoax message and was wondering what was going on. After explaining it,
I was struck by the thought: can we use the sheep reflex to our
advantage? 

We could start a SULFNBK.EXE-style Internet Rumor that "outlook.exe"
(or some less-obvious yet critical component) is a virus file and you
should delete it from your computer immediately!!!!! TELL EVERYONE!!!!

It's even sorta true...

:)

Happy Holidays, everybody.

  In 1998 more than three times as many people in the US were killed
  by incompetent physicians than were killed by handguns, yet the
  President of the A.M.A. is adopting "gun safety" as his platform.
