Hi McFox,

Isn't this actually kind of sad? I haven't received a Nigerian scam letter in over a week! I thought maybe they'd finally gone away. But no. I just saw this post.

I thought, Gee! The feds finally took notice! Then I thought, Gee! That's troubling. What took them so long?

Then I scrolled to the bottom of the page, and saw
> Copyright © 2002 United States Secret

Then I thought, Gee! That's troubling. All this time! Why haven't they done anything?

But then I thought, It figures! Isn't there a federal law someplace that puts federal documents in the public domain? That would make it illegal for the feds to copyright public information, wouldn't it? If so, then here's a leading federal government agency which doesn't even know their own marching orders.

Then I thought, Gee! Everything's running normally. That's troubling...

<sigh>
