Uh-oh, looks like those email applications threaten the very existence
of humanity, and since people are inherently no damn good, we ought to
rescind the constutition and impose a perfect, permanent Big Brother
network to keep an eye on every last one of us suspcicious characters,
to make sure nobody ever replies to a piece of email ever again.
BTW: How do you know I DIDN't type it all in by hand????? ;) I'm a
pretty good typist..
