Jackie, there is NO reason for you to leave Pet Talk over this. You made a mistake, it's not a big deal. No one would want to see you go.

First of all, If you receive something in an email like that, or a story or any forwards telling you to do something or sign your name, it's a hoax. I don't believe ANYTHING I get. And I don't forward stuff either. There is a website you can go to to check these out as well, just to make sure...

Just look to the left of the page for the topics they have categorized and look for the email you recieved. I have found almost every single email that I was looking for and none were ever true.

Secondly, a appeal to create a National Firefighters day was requested by Conner so the subject of this email isn't really false. But he never sent this out in email form.

This is just my opinion of course but I don't like seeing people duped. There is just way way too much BS out there and I have learned that people will write anything in an email to get a following. It is their way of seeing where there email goes and what parts of the world they can reach.

Jackie, please please stay... just don't believe what you get in email. It is sad that the crazy, bored people have had to make us synical. (sp?)
