>>                                FREEDOM OF SPEECH
>>
>> To whoever may read this,
>>
>> This is not a typical chain letter - By passing it on to as
>> many people as you can, you are taking part in what may yet become
>> the world's biggest practical joke.  The U.S. Government has recently
>> passed an act which enforces censorship on the internet.  A group of
>> internet users has now come together to kick back at this oppression,
>> and have a bit of fun at the same time.
>>
>> The aim of this exercise is to re-establish the United States as "The
>> land of the Free", not a fascist state where freedom of speech and
>> thought are curtailed.
>>
>> On receiving this letter, please pass it on to as many friends or
>> E-mail lists as you can.  We predict that if everybody copies the
>> letter to 5 other addresses, by February 29th 1996, this letter
>> should have reached in excess of 2 million people. That's when the
>> fun begins...
>>
>> On February 29th, please send the message below (between the asterisks) to:
>>
>>                            President-AT-Whitehouse.gov
>>
>> By sending the letter on the date above, you will contribute to either
>> one huge petition for freedom, or else lead to a CRASH OF THE WHITEHOUSE
>> SERVER.
>>
>>
>>                 Remember that solidarity is the key to success
