Article 14564 of alt.sex.cthulhu: From: bs904@FreeNet.Carleton.CA (Andrew Nellis) Newsgroups: alt.sex.cthulhu Subject: POD: WAR JOURNAL: A call to arms! Date: 15 Mar 1997 10:50:13 GMT Week 2: CTHULHU NEEDS *YOU*! I recently received the piece of snarky mail appended below. You will note that the tone is rather... insulting. They feel that it's perfectly alright to dump their spam on us because, well, look: everyone else is! I encourage all of you to SEND MAIL to these people! Let them know that NO ONE here wants their damn spam! We are NOT a dumping ground. We are an unholy, unsanctified KILLING ground. It's a call to arms, troops. Take a few minutes and fire them off a piece of your mind, if you have some to spare and the Mi-Go haven't left you totally bereft. As they say, "it is, after all, America." Yep, it's America all over the world. It's America up here in Canada, it's America over there in the UK where the FAQ is, it's America down in R'lyeh where everyone's favourite tentacled sex fiend lives... ______________________ From swingers@westworld.com Fri Mar 14 12:19:53 1997 ---------------------- Received: from mail.wgn.net (root@mail.wgn.net [207.213.0.9]) by freenet.carleton.ca (8.8.3/8.6.4) with ESMTP id MAA07303 for ; Fri, 14 Mar 1997 12:19:47 -0500 (EST) Received: from LOCALNAME (du207-pcap-nca01.wgn.net [207.213.5.207]) by mail.wgn.net (8.8.5-q-beta3/8.6.9) with SMTP id JAA03943 for ; Fri, 14 Mar 1997 09:19:28 -0800 Date: Fri, 14 Mar 1997 09:19:28 -0800 Message-Id: <2.2.16.19970314092015.2397b270@mail.westworld.com> X-Sender: swingers@mail.westworld.com (Unverified) X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 2.2 (16) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" To: bs904@freenet.carleton.ca From: Aahhhhh!
