# fucking hell
they used the whole interview. christ. I didn't expect that.

But uh - no idea why you'd be spammed with it. Both me and i'd imagine the BBC would have better things to do really.

# you do a fine job of that on your own :P
but seriously, i don't think so.. it's not malicious, merely irritating that this e-mail address is being spammed, it's a bit futile of whoever it is targetting b3tans, when b3tans are going to see it on the board at some stage...


I thought the inclusion of "spread the word" particularly cheesy :)
