Today at school I could not help overhear a conversation, they were talking about the terrifying terrorist events that happened two weeks ago in America. One of my friend’s received an email and this is what it told him to do:

- Go on Microsoft Word
- Type in Q33NY
- Set the font to 72
- Then change the font to Wingdings

Q33NY was the name of one of the planes that crashed into one of the WTC towers! When you change the font you see some pretty scary stuff that resembles the terrifying events that happened two weeks ago.

This is what I heard around at school, it could be something made up or it could be pure coincidence. I have tried this and agree that it works.

To show that what I am typing is true, I found this site to help explain it all, you will realise that I was just making you all aware of the email that is passing over the net.

Please try thinking before posting.
