[ Thanks to Locutus
for this link. ]
“Hello,
“You may not know me as I received your attention from a browser
link. This is very important so please continue reading. This
letter has the possibility of changing your life. With your help we
can realise that dream.“My name is Locutus and I work at the Learning Institute of New
UniX (LINUX). Our founding father was savagely mauled by a charging
penguin and left us with, at this moment, 61,494,822 (sixty one
million, four hundred and ninety four thousand,eight hundred and
twenty two) specially compressed bytes of valuable digital zero’s
and ones. This incredible bounty is becoming more valuable and
improving every day.“While I could be greedy and keep all of this digital goodness
to myself it is not in my nature. According to the laws surrounding
this package it is within my right to share this precious knowledge
with you. Fortunately this package, which has been given the code
name of Kernel, is currently sequestered in many places, called
distributions.”
