Yeah.  I guess so.  But, even so, I would have more respect for the poster
if he had taken all the blame for himself and not shifted any to the
originator of the letter.  I guess I'm of the "honor among thieves" school
of thought.

Anyway, if there is such a thing as criminal insanity, then there ought to
be such a thing as criminal stupidity, and the willing dupes of pyramid
schemes fit the bill nicely.  I hope this fellow has learned from his mistakes.
I mean, I hope he has learned  "you can't get something for nothing,"
not just "don't try anything funny on the net."
