I have no real objectione with the message of this post. However, the
line above is extremely dangerous of acted upon within the internet,
usenet, and other UNIX based newsfeeds. Posting to 3 additional
private BBS's is one thing (annoying) but the above proposal is
strictly forbidden on the inter-collegiate newsfeeds.

It is called a chain letter. 

No matter what the good intentions, no message is so important that it
must be distributed in this manner. It clogs the feeds, costs money
and breaks the rules that keep operations smooth. Please, let's not
have some overzealous users flood the networks with this post.
