I just got one
i wonder how they got my number


For the general one they don't have *your* number they have *a* number, just one of
the
million numbers on the phone networks data bases Its probably the networks themselves

have been tasked with sending out the messages hence the slight differences in the

Learn how to snip, you moron.


Ooooh dear ! It looks like someone's really upset.

Did you fail your traffic wardens or park keepers exam, or something ?

Is that why you're reduced to trying to order compete strangers around, on UseNet ?

You do realise of course that that's not a very good or productive idea.

With the possible exception I suppose of ordering people around who are even
nearer the back of the class than you clearly are; if such were even possible.
