This has been here in the forums before, but I've never seen THIS line before.

I think someone added that to make people feel smarter when they can read it. Of the 4 or 5 times this was posted everyone was able to read it, and the original text said as much.

Here is the original that gives no 55% claim:

I'm not complaining it showed up again, it does once every one or two years.

I'm just questioning why someone would add the 55/100 thing... to make you feel smarter when you can read it?

My guess is someone added it and sent it to some dummy to make them feel better.

They must be really dumb to feel smarter for it, since 55/100 is just another way of saying the majority of people can see it!

Does it really matter?

Chill, the world will not come to an end. 😛 😉

I thought it might be fun for those who hadn't seen it.

I want this marked as a positive thread by me, not my fault what others do to it. 😛

What's up with 'chill'? I'm just surprised and baffled why someone would add that 55/100 part to the oldest email on the net.

You must be making a joke of course.

You're suprised and baffled why someone would change or add something on the interwebz? Again what does it really matter?

Where have you been? Things are changed all the time on the interwebz....LOL...

Tell a story to someone, and you will not recognize it when you hear it after it has been around about 20 times.

No stop peeing on my thread! 😠

Ah, but cut and paste isn't subject to Chinese Whisper game.

Really, your not the slightest bit curious as to why someone would add that?

I want to know, and I want to know NOW!~

Who did it and why?

It seems they change emails like that from time to time.
I remember getting the same email from several people about the song taps.
It said they could only find a bugle at the base to play it. The song is harmonic tones and is obviosly written for a bugle. (My summation)

It went on about a dead CSA soldier and a Union Gen. who was the father of the CSA soldier...etc etc. Each time I got the email, there was something new, including the, "I looked this up on snopes, so it's real," line.

I just kept thinking, it had to be written for a bugle. Snopes later confirmed it was all a bunch of crap.

But I enjoyed the misspelled post. It sent my proof reader into a tizzy.
