Um,,not that I've become cynical or anything (*wink*) --but -- since
www.purehoodia.com doesn't exist, my guess is this is a spammer. His
handpuppet should be along any minute now with a post that goes something
like, "I was also discouraged about being taken in by these bad Hoodia
websites, but I finally found one that has a great product at reasonable
prices. The URL is www.abcdefg in case you're interested. Blah blah blah
blah."
Isn't this how the scheme usually works?
Good thing low-carb clarfiies folks' minds; we won't be taken in by it.
They really should try alt.support.diet.low-fat; those guys are so hungry
over there that they'll fall for anything!
