Tell Me the Minning

I have been running a modest autoresponder email program
which has returned some interesting - sometimes... hilarious -
sometimes sad....responses.
It seems the Yahoo addresses are not exactly local.
Here's a sampling:

(This makes me so sad! I am going to contact this
woman and see what I can do. I feel so ashamed.)
