This is a legitimate cause! I call the foundation and verified it's on the up and up. I know how us x-decies, current decies and other professionals employees have tons of business cards and enjoy community causes. Thanks Jerry *********************************************************************************** From: sutliffe (Jane Sutliffe) Subject: A Worthy Cause The day care center where I take my son, Nathaniel, is collecting business cards for a little boy Craig Shergold. He is a seven year old little boy with a brain tumor and very little time to live. Craig turned in a wish to the Children's Make A Wish Foundation expressing his desire to have an entry in the Guinness Book of World Records for the most business cards received by an individual. So, if you'd like to help a little boy's wish come true please clean out your drawers, filing cabinets and rolodex's and send your old business cards to pass on to Craig. Craig Shergold c/o Children's Make A Wish Foundation 3200 Perimeter Center East Atlanta, Georgia 30346 Thanks for your help.

|This is a legitimate cause! I call the foundation and verified |it's on the up and up. Yeah, right. Craig Shergold, if he exists, is probably 40 years old by now. This hoax has been around the net for 10 years that I know of. First it was postcards and now business cards. Forget it. | |||||
2733.2 | It's NOT REAL, folks! | QUARK::LIONEL | Free advice is worth every cent | Thu Oct 21 1993 12:53 | 7 |
This is indeed an old, tired hoax. I'm leaving this note in the file because I want everyone to see this and to not only NOT forward this on and post it everywhere, but if you do get it, write back to whomever sent it to you and tell them to stop, and then to do the same to whomever sent it to them, and so on.

See note 676 for a previous incarnation of this hoax. Steve |
