> Dear Fellow Scientist:
>
> This letter has been around the world at least seven times.  It has
> been to many major conferences.  Now it has come to you.  It will
> bring you good fortune.  This is true even if you don't believe it.
> But you must follow these instructions:
>
>  -  include in your next journal article the citations below.
>  -  remove the first citation from the list and add a
>     citation to your journal article at the bottom.
>  -  make ten copies and send them to colleagues.
>
> Within one year, you will be cited up to 10,000 times!  This will
> amaze your fellow faculty, assure your promotion and improve
> your sex life.  In addition, you will bring joy to many colleagues.
> Do not break the reference loop, but send this letter on today.

> Dr. H. received this letter and within a year after passing it on
> she was elected to the National Academy of Sciences.  Prof. M.
> threw this letter away and was denied tenure.  In Japan, Dr.  I.
> received this letter and put it aside.  His article for Trans. on
> Nephrology was rejected.  He found the letter and passed it on, and
> his article was published that year in the New England Journal of
> Medicine.  In the Midwest, Prof. K. failed to pass on the letter,
> and in a budget cutback his entire department was eliminated.  This
> could happen to you if you break the chain of citations.
