Wow...how unusual:
1. Who would have thought that such blood rivals as MSN and Yahoo would collaborate on such a lottery?
2. Who would have thought that Microsoft would *ever* allow the term "Yahoo Windows" to appear on a promotion without someone getting the **** sued out of them?
3. Why capitalize "Month" [sic] in the first paragraph?
4. How could a run-on sentence (one sentence first paragraph) ever pass muster with the "Yahoo Windows" crowd?
5. Why is MSN capitalized in some places in this message and referenced as "Msn" in other locations? Shouldn't an acronym like that always be in caps?
6. My "claims is processed"? Great...
7. Why do they need to know my next of kin? 
8. Ad infinitum correction of format, grammar and syntax errors...
9. I wonder if "Mrs. Shina Patery" has Britany's contact information? Per-would you know?
