"Account Size Critical: You may not be receiving all of your messages
Let's just say that seeing these words does not bring joy to me.
Ever.

If you sent email last week, and I haven't responded I do apologize. However, some of my particularly brilliant students thought it would be fun to:
1) ignore ALL directions and send me their 2-3MB final project
2) hit 'send' repeatedly (so that multiple copies found their way)

Mind you, I am a proud MSN lemming, and have succumbed to paying the outrageous 'minimal fee' of $20 for what-should-be-my-god-given-right-to-free-email.
(Ok, so they threatened me in the past. I have no spine.)

I am still irked (and haunted) by the deathly glare of my computer screen. In case you're curious, the dire penalty for exceeding the storage limit is the automatic disabling of your account. When you fail to recognize this, MSN escalates matters and merrily commences the deletion process. (Artfully selecting the messages you've been dutifully saving in your inbox.)

Ok, so only morons do this. But I had stuff in there from some of you that I kept meaning to respond to.
Call me a moron.
