Rules of the Information Road

• Quote previous letter when you respond
• Look before you post on a forum or newsgroup
• Don’t pass on chain letters or virus warnings, , jokes
  • If there's a hook, a threat, and a request then it's probably a chain letter (E-mail postage)
  • If it's too good to be true, it's probably a chain letter (Disney Hoax)
• Don't pass on virus warnings - 99% of them are bogus (Virus hoax)
• Be selective of what you do foward (jokes, sentimental stories, Cancer story)
