I’m writing this to say that I just recieved that same chain letter today from my grandmother, and I bet she did send it out of genuine concern, like you said. I’m so glad you have written about that email - lately I’ve also been doing Google searches about forwarded messages/chain letters to make sure that what I’ve read is really true, and SO FAR, 100% of the time, every chain letter I’ve recieved for months is just spam. But I don’t think too many people know that. Your post here has been really helpful, and convincing (but especially convincing to me since I was already clued into practically every point of yours mentioned about this hoax) and I’m hoping to send out that message to my friends and family, but not in a chain-lettery-spammish way. :P

I think that this blog of yours is very interesting, and I’m going to read more of it… :) Doesn’t seem like too many people comment, but it’s still good to keep on writing… hehe. Again, I’m glad I stumbled upon this entry of yours (this Web site was actually listed at the top of the Google page when I typed in “elbow strongest point of body,” above some other sites listed about this chain letter). Okay, just letting you know.
