   Mars hoax?  I don't remember that one, unless you are talking about Orsen   
   Wells.  The Y2K one was funny as heck,  Considering I had checked my computer   
   out in 1988 to see if it would take the year 2000 and up.  Not knowing that   
   the hackers back then were doing their job very well and had us protected.   
   The polecats in Washington and Billy Gates just wanted people to buy new   
   computers and get away from Win95 and DOS based systems.  It's like all of   
   these new "flu's" that we get every year.  I don't get the flu shot and I   
   don't get sick, take the shot, and I am sick for over a month.  What gives   
   there?

    Heh!  Probably true about that.  It's their job to harm us :(
