As you are receiving my note by e-mail, its wise to remember how easily this wonderfultechnology can be misused, sometimes unintentionally, with serious consequences.

Consider the case of the Illinois man who left the snow-filled streets of Chicago for avacation in Florida. His wife was on a business trip and was planning to meet him therethe next day. When he reached his hotel, he decided to send his wife a quick e-mail.

Unable to find the scrap of paper on which he had written her e-mail address, he didhis best to type it in from memory. Unfortunately, he missed one letter and his note wasdirected instead to an elderly preachers wife whose husband had passed away only the daybefore.

When the grieving widow checked her e-mail, she took one look at the monitor, let out apiercing scream, and fell to the floor in a dead faint. At the sound, her family rushedinto the room and saw this note on the screen:

DEAREST WIFE: JUST GOT CHECKED IN. EVERYTHING PREPARED FOR YOUR ARRIVAL TOMORROW.

P.S. SURE IS HOT DOWN HERE
