Michael and the list,

Well, in that case, I truly am sorry. It never occurred to me that anyone
here on the list was really that gullible. I'll not take it so lightly next
time.

I get them fairly regularly too. Honestly, it has never occurred to me that
there was any chance of this being a "sincere" offer. Again, didn't mean any
harm to anyone.

Rik
