We knew this was > coming!! Bill 602P will permit the Federal Govt. Others may have already chimed in on this, but just in case. This e-mail tax thing is a hoax. Don't pass it on! You can read about it at About.com's urban legend site if you're not convinced: http://urbanlegends.miningco.com/culture/urbanlegends/library/blemtax2.htm It's a good idea to check this site before forwarding such messages. Most of the time if you're asked to forward something to everyone you know, it's a hoax.
