Yesterday I received a chain letter of about 20kb. One of the children here who has been using my login saw fit to forward it to about 10 sites. I dis- covered all this when I logged in this morning to find a number of angry and somewhat intemperate messages in my mailbox. My apologies to all for the inconvenience and for my lapse in judgement in choosing who to allow to have su privileges. The guilty parties will be subject to a term in the re-education camp. Is there something that can be done about chain letters? Has there been an ongoing discussion concerning this? Is it a non-issue? Again my apologies, -- Reidar Bornholdt ..!harpo!cucard!reidar
