DON'T DISTRIBUTE "STOP NUCLEAR TESTS!" (Re: STOP NUCLEAR TESTS!)



**** DON'T DISTRIBUTE "STOP NUCLEAR TESTS!" ANY FURTHER !!!!!!! *****

Dear colleagues,

Regarding to the chain-mail named 'STOP NUCLEAR TESTS!', the originators
have agreed that the method was not appropriate and now they are asking
whom concerned to access a WWW site they newly opened instead of
distributing the mail any further.

Please find details in the attached mail from the originators.

>1. The chain letter, "Stop Nulcear Tests!" is no longer wanted to

>   We have much more information there than we had on the chain letter.
>   We have collected 10378 names from 74 countries/regions by Mon
>   Jul. 17.

>   part with it. That means, please cut the banner and the sentences

>4. About the chain letter: after distributing our first chain letter,
>   we have realized there were many problems in our chain letter,
>   and then, that using chain letter was inadequate from the begining.
>   We have sent our second chain letter to go after the first one,
>   since that was the only way we could think of to stop the first
>   one from spreading. However this is not working so well, and now
>   many sites around world is having unnecessarly high traffics
>   and are getting into troubles.
>   We deeply apologize for having started a chain letter. We hearby
>   declare that we will never ever start such thing and also never
>   distribute one when we recieve other chain letters, no matter
>   what the content may be.
>   If you see anywhere anyplace in the network about this chain
>   letter, please tell people that we have realized the inadequateness
>   of our method and trying our best to stop further distributions.

>5. If you had recieved our letter with only "Dear Sirs" on it,
>   we are very sorry about this. It comes from our poor knowlege
>   of English: in Japanese, we don't have differnt ways to call
>   to Men and Women. Those of you who had added "Dear Madames" or
>   changed it to "Dear people" and so on, thank you for your help.

>6. We have already told all our story to our postmaster, and they
