On Tuesday, November 13, 2001 Sr. Helen Prejean came to Sandusky, Ohio to speak out on the death penalty.

She is also affiliated with the Moratorium Campaign, fighting for fairness and social justice. In their words, it truly is time to STOP and rethink the death penalty.

There are many computer viruses out there that can wreak havoc on your system, but there are almost as many *virus hoaxes* spreading fear like wildfire. As a rule of thumb, whenever you receive an e-mail warning you of a virus where the sender writes, "This was reported by (fill in your favorite news program/network or software company here) on <DATE>" or "This is not a joke, I am serious." or the spammer cannot even use proper spelling or grammar, you can bet that the Virus Alert is a hoax and that you are only adding to the fear and creating unnecessary extra e-mail by passing these along to your friends. The REAL virus is the exponential resulting spawn of terror e-mails. For more information, please visit Virus Hoaxes and educate yourself and your friends.
