It appears to me that the author of the above statement is NOT practicing
what he is preaching -- i.e. Chain letters in any form shouldnt be
circulated! Then why cc a whole bunch of people who are already members of
Goanet? Arent they all receiving the same post twice? Or is there a
special message therein, unbeknownst to the rest of us?
However, what he has not cared to comment on, is whats so harmful in the
message below:
<So what is truth? I will not venture to enter into (presumably) an already
extended debate. I have no intent to favor either Mario or Cynthia, but in
the interest of truth heres how I perceive it as revealed in both these
stories:
1. Marios narration alerts the public that a sitting needle on bench/seat
could be hazardous (more so if the needle was infected) thus inflicting a
sting / causing injury to an inattentive individual. Lets not go into
another excruciating debate on how long it takes before the virus (if any)
is totally desiccated.
Erring on the side of caution is far better than otherwise suffering the
consequences thereof take that as the moral of the story.
2. Cynthias post on "Acres of Diamonds -- the now haunting urban legend,
on Goanet (this one I had to visit the archives to read more about). The
tale seems to tell readers how the childs meager gift of fifty-seven cents
inspired a generous benefactor to donate a large fund towards the church
building.
The church perhaps may not have been built, (any sooner,) if not for the
timely inspiration arising from the childs tiny yet profound "first gift"
towards a building-fund for a new church.
So whats so threatening about these two stories?>

To this writer, it seems a mere waste of time and energy
scrutinizing/debunking a post that already has a clear message. Of course I
cannot say the same for critics who apparently enjoy such endeavors and
frivolous exercises. :)
Best wishes,
Joe Vaz
