Correction "Jetta GLX & SE-Rs"

["S. Joseph Mann" <joem@pswtech.com>]

John,

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. Child molester??  Suing is too tedious and
nice.  Just get some friends together and pay him a visit.  Actually I don't really
condone violence, but it sounds like a good idea for this jerkoff.

As for the FBI thing.  I don't believe he was threatening me, but actually talking
about a worse case scenarios if the the lists had gotten involved in a system
compromising flaming war over my original email. But fortunately for all involved,
that didn't happen.

Good luck with your situation.

Joe
