Ok, we all hate spam. Unsolicited sales pitches. Yuck!
But I got one a few months back that was kind of wierd. I don't know why I just started thinking about this today, but I did. It didn't seem to be advertising any product, as far as I recall there was no attachment and no link to a web page. It was simply a message purporting to be from a time traveller from the future that had been stranded here and was looking for some obscure components that they could modify to repair their time machine. The email asked people to reply and list any of these specific items they could supply. Perhaps that was where you got the sales pitch, if you replied. I don't know cause I never responded.
Did anyone else see that and do they know what it was about? Maybe it was some college prank or experiment or something. I know I received it on a couple of my email addresses so I doubt it was somebody just messing with me specifically.
