You must be as green as your Benz Bush my friend considering the fact that you even have to ASK whether that's spam! I envy you as it means you haven't been raided with crap like that on the various outlets of the Internet as most of us have since Al Gore graced us with his wonderful invention.

Cool

You are lucky, I got a similar PM and it turned out to be some guy trying to sell me some cheap stuff (made in China) for my car. At least you might get a date or married (LOL).
