I recently advertised a refrigerator in the Recycler and got many bogus
e-mails offering to buy it and have it shipped to the UK. Same premise:
cashier's check for way over the amount. A 110 volt fridge in 220 UK? And
how about the once-a-day offers from Nigeria to send me $40 million? Or the
once-a-week Lottery winnings. It's a brave new e-world........

Clarionet. An instrument of torture operated by a person with cotton in his
ears. There are two instruments worse than the clarionet - two clarionets.
