I have received two versions of this warning about "Good Times" 
virus, this one from mail list Design-L and a similar one from 
list Fiction-of-Philosophy.  Some forwarded headers have been 
removed from this version.

Has anyone on c'punks got further info or comment?

Yeah, I'm getting really fucking sick of it. This is about the dozenth
copy of this silly thing I've received from various sources. As far as
I'm concerned, the only 'virus' we have to worry about is the
unrelenting propogation of that damn message.

Has anyone actually seen this 'Good Times' thing? I highly doubt
it. And seriously, an e-mail virus? Get real.

And pigs fly too.

						Ian.

It's a hoax.  Although, like a virus, this bloody warning has been 
infecting dozens of mailing lists...
