Subject: OT – Customer Warranty Form

— Hi there – this is a bit off-topic, but I have found so many
interesting things on this group I thought you might enjoy it-

This was allegedly posted very briefly on the McDonnell Douglas
Website by an employee there who obviously has a sense of humor. The
company, of course, does not have a sense of humor and made the web
department take it down immediately.
