[BITList] hell explained

[x50type]

I agree, Frank

in 1920 it is unlikely to have been circulated in the general population, and whilst you may have thought it was a well thought out joke you distributed it as one of your numerous gems of advice/wisdom/dire prophesy [none of which I take at face value], not as a joke.
Some are so bizarre they are obviously false; now I feel it my duty to research the contents of all. 
Don’t’ get me wrong, I do this for all such missives I receive – not only yours.
Statistically 90% are false yet the sheep pass them down the line indiscriminately, feeling they are performing a service because the advice/wisdom/dire prophesy exhorts readers to ‘pass it on’.
The internet has enough crap in it without me passing it on and assisting the flow.

Shouldn't imagine it got much circulation in 1920, personally I thought of it as a rather well thought out joke

  you’re recycling this one one from your seemingly inexhaustible supply of falsies [it reportedly surfaced in 1920]; the occasional true one might be of interest.
