P3D 3-D VIRUS WARNING!

I've just have been handed this urgent message and have been
instructed to warn as many people as possible! This is NOT a
HOAX!

This new strain of stereo-virus is passed innocently enough
by showing stereoscopic images, purported to be better than
regular 2-D images. Only catch is you have to view them with
some viewing contraption; usually strange looking red/blue
glasses or special viewers. Once you look at these images,
your eyes get fatigued and the virus has started to do it's
damage. It latches on to the brain cells and quickly replicates.

The infected person soon gets headaches and after a few days
starts babbling about how 3-D images are more realistic
and insists on taking duplicates of every picture they
shoot. As mentioned above, the infected person passes on this
virus to other unsuspecting souls by his or hers sudden urge
to share these 3-D images. So BEWARE, if someone asks you to
look at any image through a viewer/glasses, refuse or look
at the image with one eye closed and exclaim as how great
the image seemingly looks. 

THE LAST TIME THERE WAS A MAJOR OUTBREAK WAS IN THE FIFTIES,
BUT NOW WITH THE ADVENT OF THE INTERNET, THIS VIRUS IS MUCH
MORE DANGEROUS! SO PLEASE, DO NOT LOOK AT THESE STEREO-VIRUS
PICTURES!!!
