Serenityha,

The Answer I Have Is B, ) False - Is Correct...

. This urban myth has been circulating via e-mail since 1999, but it originated much earlier.
According to Snopes.com, the message was purportedly sent by either Massachusetts Institute of Technology staff (1999 version) or the Department of Homeland Security (2006 version).
Internet users were warned that a, " Spring Cleaning " would take place from midnight on March 31st to the early morning of April 1st, during which all unused sites, as well as e-mails, would be deleted to make the Internet faster.

Of course, it was all a hoax.

DS is getting ready for one though! A new look and if you haven't used your account in a year they more than likely will close it.

Seek brought this up, I received the notice myself. Sad when you think of old timers I keep that pop in once a year or so and those that have passed on.

I plan on sending hugs/pms and hope that keeps their accounts open!

i recall the 2000 craziness and also when DS switched systems, so i think that's a good idea, toni. i think you can still send out group messages.
