Thanks.

I got another one of those "forward to all your friends" emails tonight.
Instead of just deleting it, as I do for 99% of the forwards I get daily, I actually *read* it.

Turns out, after referring to Snopes.com (my central database of B.S.!), that this is actually true!

I'm posting the email I received, as well as Snopes' evaluation.

<QUOTED EMAIL>

Something cool that Xerox is doing

If you go to this web site, www.letssaythanks.com  you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to some member of the armed services.

How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!! This is a great site. Please send a card. It is FREE and it only takes a second.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these? Whether you are for or against the war, our guys and gals over there need to know we are behind them...

<END EMAIL>

Follow this link to Snopes.com for the rest of it, 'cuz I'm too lazy to try and copy all the formatting, etc...


Now I feel better, and hope our troops do, too.
