Planey Posted October 11, 2008 Author Posted October 11, 2008 was that in your C/A internal mailbox? Yes - there were two copies, marked as being posted 2 minutes apart. I didn't delete them, but marked myself as no longer being part of the conversation. Maybe they have disappeared into cyberspace?

Taylor Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 LOL humour is the best place.. was that in your C/A internal mailbox? I just got one today too. I think we've been spammed. Quote
Morning Glory Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 I got one yesterday, too. It was labeled as spam, actually. I marked myself off the conversation, and also put the poster on "ignore." Sounds like a scam to me, actually!! Morning Glory Quote Kindness is the oil that takes the friction out of life.
