Please DO NOT circulate that message further.  If you visit
Houghton-Mifflan's WWW page, you will find on the current news stories:

For those of you who have written to us: The Polar Express Share the
Spirit Campaign, sponsored by Houghton Mifflin Interactive, is a
legitimate internet-based charity event that benefits hospitalized
children who can't be home for the holidays. The campaign has achieved
its goal of 50,000 messages and the e-mail portion of the campaign has
come to a close. However, we still invite you to visit the site to
share a message about your favorite holiday tradition or memory with
the internet community.

(From <http://www.hmco.com/hmco/school/whatsnew/index.html>).


Thus, sending them more email will not help.  Forwarding the appeal
further will only waste bandwidth and result in bounced mail.
