Thanks, it is amazing what you learn here! I hate those too, it is like you are a bad person if you don't send it on! I tried finding it on Snopes to forward to my friends but didn't know what to put in search.

So many folks fail to delete others addresses and it is so quick and simple to do. Have seen some X boyfriends addresses.........and they were from a LOOONG time ago.......sure could have some fun

That is good information. I stopped sending things like that some time back, not for the reasons you had stated, but that I just cannot stand chain letters. I find them boring and intrusive.
