Try this it's legit i checked

I am Shannon Syfrett a 9th grade student at Central Academy (Mississippi). I am working on a project for my 2003 Science Fair to be held February 25th, 2003.

I am trying to see where, and how fast e-mail can travel in a period of six weeks. I am keeping track of how many e-mails I get back, and what cities, states, and countries they are coming from. I am hoping that you will be willing to help me with my project!

There are only 2 simple steps that will help me to track this email:

1. Please send an e-mail to the following address: howfastorfar2003@aol.com In the subject of the e-mail please include your city, state, and country. You do not need to include your name. Please respond only one time.

2. Please forward this e-mail to everyone on your mailing list. I will be keeping track of the number of responses, as well as the locations. Therefore, send them even to people in the same town.

In my science project, I am trying to demonstrate how fast and how far information can travel on the Internet in a six week period. If you receive this e-mail after February 23, 2003 please disregard it, since the project will be over.

Thank you VERY much for your help!
Shannon Syfrett


Australia is about as far as she can go without coming back eh?

You do know of course that this is a new hybrid of chain-letter email right? Only this one has the effect of either mailbombing some guy/gal's email address, or letting the original perpetrator track how many gullible people fall for the trick.

[font size=1" color="#FF0000]LAST EDITED ON Feb-03-03 AT 10:36PM (GMT)[p]Actually this one is legit (as featured on www.snopes.com) and it's a little girl who did not think that the e-mail account on aol would be swamped with e-mails. I mean who would set up an account with an address such as this one?
This is basicaly the same thing as we did as kids with baloons, it's a message in a bottle.

And of course i replied with a newly created hotmail account. Just in case (i'm not that dumb).

Great, more excuses to waste bandwidth on an already flooded net.

Me? Help someone? BAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!

You Canadians sure are funny.

Thanks for the link to www.snopes.com though. They say:
If you send a reply to this message, you'd best hope that the mailbox has recently been emptied.

I'm also pretty sure she's receieved something from someone down in Antartica by now though too. Unless that bounced back...

If she can actually put something decent together, it would be an interesting science project. In a "at least it's not a volcano" kind 'a way.
