[WikiEN-l] overstock

[Brock Weller]

This may be something old, but a friend of mine asked me a question online
today, including this bit:
--------------
I got an email for a liquidation sale.
http://rd.sales.overstock.com/cprOverstock/10000/cphostredirect.asp?sid=20238

I click that link, and below the merchandise is a box with the following in
it.

===========

* Wikipedia has become an instrument of mass mind-control.
I thought you'd want to know.
Respectfully,
Patrick M. Byrne
CEO, Overstock.com
PS Ask yourself, might there be other subjects, like Wall Street corruption,
where the same techniques are being employed? (Incidentally, Jimbo Wales,
the founder of Wikipedia, is a former Chicago options trader. How odd.)

what the hell's going on?
