Hi all, I'm attaching this e-mail from a fellow list owner on the smoe server. This is no joke, and no hoax. Date sent: Thu, 04 May 2000 12:20:33 -0400 To: mad-mission@smoe.org From: Mike Connell Subject: MM: List Management - Virus Alert - this IS for real If you get an email today with the subject "I Love You", especially with an attachment, it's real nasty.....read on. This IS for real and has already whacked out a lot os systems today. The article is from www.cnet.com and there's a more informative one at www.cnn.com It also effects Mirc users, which the article below fails to mention. Mike - List manager/owner *********** Virus Alert: "I Love You" Email Virus A deadly computer virus has hit computers in Asia and Europe and is spreading like wildfire across the United States via email messages. The virus, which includes the message "I Love You" or "Love Letter" in the email subject line, was first spotted in Asia early this morning. The virus arrives in an email that includes an attachment called "Love-Letter-For-You," and targets users of Microsoft Outlook to send messages with the virus to every person listed in that user's address book. Once opened, the email virus overwrites existing local script and HTML files, as well as picture and music files, with its own code. Files with extensions.jpg," .jpeg, .mp3 and .mp2 are overwritten. To protect yourself against "I Love You," do not open any messages with the subject "I Love You" or "Love Letter" or any other suspicious attachments. Delete these messages immediately and download the latest version of your antivirus software.

The Point was packed, Lisa Beth looked great, and the exuberant mood never ended. (OK, it was hard to hear the lyrics most of the night over all the talking, but no one seemed to mind too much. It was a party. And the talking stopped for Susan.) There was a stream of about 30-40 performers over four hours. The acts included such pros as Joseph Parsons, Something Black, Patti Shea, Nancy Falkow, Adam Brodsky and Ben Arnold, all doing solid (but brief) work. Barry Rabin sang his hilarious new song about the difficulty of getting on local radio, called "I'm Not Cool Enough for Michaela," and had the whole crowd clapping along (even the song's subject, Michaela Majoun, who gave Barry a hug when he finished). Lisa Beth sang a sweet new song, and gave a long and very emotional speech thanking everyone in sight. I even pulled out my mandolin to accompany a group led by Barry Rabin on one song-- which had me very nervous, because I hadn't even touched the darn thing in six months! But lucky for me (and the audience), Ken Ulansey ended up doing the solo, not me. The mandolin also led to my favorite moment of the night-- it's an Ovation acoustic/electric, and I was waiting to go on, Susan walked by, tapped me on the back and said, "Hey, that looks cool!" Ken Ulansey played a version of "In a Sentimental Mood" with Susan backing him up on keyboards. Lisa Beth's mother and stepfather got up to dance during the song-- very sweet. Lisa Beth called her stepfather her "faux pa." :>) Each act did only one song, until around ten pm, when John Flynn came on and did two new songs, including a lovely song which he "just finished the lyrics to tonight while driving here on the Blue Route" called "That's What Friends Do." It seemed to sum up the spirit of the night. Then Susan came on and did three songs: "All of the Above", "Dow Re Mi" and "Misery/Happiness." First time I had heard two of those songs, and I was impressed and delighted as usual. Susan said she had never heard an audience join in so exuberantly on "Dow", but, hey, we'd been singing along for hours. Then a whole heap of singers got onstage to sing "Over The Rainbow" as a finale, with Susan backing them up on keyboards. While singing the bridge, some woman *really* slowed down the tempo, and Susan had to vamp for an extra measure till she caught up. (Hey, same thing happened with one of the singers during my song-- there's one in every crowd, I guess.) It would have been nice to hear Susan sing "Out On A Steam Grate in Bryn Mawr" for the occasion (we were on Lancaster Avenue, after all), but no one had any complaints. No one hogged the spotlight, and everyone was there to help out a friend. A nice time. - -Tim HELP! owner-believers@smoe.org Send mail to believers@smoe.org Susan's CD's are available on your desktop at songs.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 4 May 2000 18:47:21 -0400 From: "Murphy, Steve" Subject: RE: VIRUS ALERT - Take this one seriously!

And they played several songs from it, including one that even mentions Susan! The song is called "Beware the Killer Tents" and is based on their experience at last year's Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, where they saw so many tents atop a hill that they were convinced the tents were about to attack. And they sing the song in a close harmony reminiscent of the Kingston Trio or the Brothers Four-- a very funny parody on folk traditions. I checked www.fruvous.com and found these lyrics. - -Tim Beware the Killer Tents (as performed on 7/24/99) Beware the Killer Tents! Beware the Killer Tents! Chorus: The tents are coming, over the hill We thought they were inanimate, but now they're set to kill At Falcon Ridge this summer Somehow we've enraged the Falcon Gods Tents have turned to creeping crawling body-snatching pods It was time for the big hoedown It was Hillsdale '99 Susan Werner saw a tent pole grow like an ivy vine Eddie from Ohio through his rear view mirror saw How with reckless abandon they were eatin' people raw (Tents, that is) The Kennedys tore Greg Brown >From his soul food bowl Said surely nothing good can come from Such a grassy knoll Time to cut the mustard And beat a fast retreat Cause Vance Gilbert's looking tasty and those tents they gotta eat! (Jian: they like the dark meat!) Repeat Chorus Roger the Jester wasn't joshing when he said "They'll kill us all!" And an unHarmonius Wail announced the end of Ellis Paul Cry Cry Cry as they devoured Run Run Run as they hurl the undigested flesh of LJ Booth and Stacey Earle They'll execute a Hudson crossing As the mother tent commands Slithering all the way from Utah Phillips Screwdrivers in hand To dismantle the machinery from where folk fests are flowing So this time next year this field will just be Wild Asparagus growing Repeat Chorus Beware the Killer Tents!! Tony Trischka's hallowed banjo The hungry tents will sup And even Ani will be swallowed Up Up Up Up Up >From Ferron they'll exact their macabre vendetta And the Nields will never have the chance to get over that slut Greta! No Falcon Ridge performer will escape this ghastly crime Except for those who weren't invited And those whose names are hard to rhyme What of Fruvous, you may ask Listen up! Let me explain! We joined forces with the tents And turned them into the King of Spain! Yes with this terrifying army Fruvous futures have been coupled We've pissed off the folkies But our ticket prices have been doubled! Repeat Chorus Beware the Killer Tents! Beware the Killer Tents!
