It might refer to the Japanese occupation of the Philippines in WWII
Try Googling for the details.
I know a lot of Filipino's and they tell horror stories about the occupation.
Horror stories that I will not repeat here because I do not know if they are true.
I have my own idea that might explain it.
I recast gravity in my theory and it seams to work on the quantum level and in General Relativity.

[original message] This is a symptom of what has become all too common in todays email society - the trivialization of communication.
The "forward" has become a replacement for an actual composed email message. Its easier to maintain the illusion of staying in touch by forwarding some insipid crap rather than taking the time to actually *gasp* drop someone a personal note.
As a result, most email is not private, or more importantly, personal. I can easily imagine what went through the recipients mind - "wow, this is cool, let me forward it to ____". Why wouldn't he ? After all, we foward crap to each other all the time, why should this very interesting email be any different ?
You get something that looks interesting, you forward it. It couldn't POSSIBLY have been intended for ONLY you.
I would bet that had this letter been handwritten, the recipients would not have shown it around.
Most likely Dave Peterschmidt, He took out millions in loans from the company
then laid me and 270 other people off the next day because there wasn't enough
money.
I know Inktomi was going to let him get away with not paying back the loans,
but hopefully Yahoo won't. On the bright side all the stock I own may soon
be worth more than one digit.
