unsuitable for overly sensitive persons with low
self-esteem, no sense of humo(u)r or irrational
religious beliefs (including atheism). If you

Those of you with an overwhelming fear of the
unknown will be gratified to learn that there is
no hidden message revealed by reading this
warning backwards, so just ignore that Alert
Notice from Microsoft. However, by pouring a
complete circle of salt around yourself and your
computer you can ensure that no harm befalls you
and your pets. If you have received this email
in error, please add some nutmeg and egg whites,
whisk and place in a warm oven for 40 minutes.
