Now wasn't that ridiculous? Someone might give up and just delete one of these
over fat digests. I wonder how many won't page down to read this?

Signature Memetic Virus--The worst enemy of those who now or will need medical
care is the politician and proselytizing religious bigot who proscribes what
doctors are allowed to prescribe and research, with the consent of their
patients. Those who understand this are strongly encouraged to modify this to
fit their personality, and add this to their signature file, and organize to
recover our freedom from Big Brother. For those who wait until they are sick,
it will be too late. Those who suffer from diseases which might have been
cured by fetal tissue research or schedule 1 drugs banned by Big Brother, have
the right to hold accountable those who sat on their hands or worse, deferred
their responsibility for personal and humanity's survival to useless gods and
pontificating religious quacks, while they remained ill and dying.
