I am confused by the message from someone named Wilson claiming to be the
head of the Department of Information Studies at the University of Sheffield.
The head of Information Studies at the University of Sheffield, which
happens to be in Alexandria, Virginia, and not in England, is Al Gore.
By the way, can just anyone now use the Sheffield to apply to steak knives
made in South East Pango?
