Anyone have any further updates?

as for ur point bout reading the emails properly, we’re all used to reading (or rather skimming) emails, and all other internet stuff really fast, its just habitual, so thats why u shud take xtra care to make sure u dont have any form of ambiguity in ur articles…esp in something of such sensitive nature.

I’m helping to publicise the fact that Matt is missing.

I’m saying missing person hoaxes detract from the real missing people cases.

I hope people don’t delete an email about Matt, thinking it is a hoax, and read it instead.

Your response has kind of made the point – you didn’t read it properly, instead assuming I was saying Matt’s disappearance was a hoax.

Shame on you Scam! There is a person missing and all you care about it demeening a friend who is trying to reached out the best way that he knows how! Your article did not draw attention to the matter, but rather embarrassed you as a writer!

I think the title is good, considering the nature of this site and the type of posts I have made before – it makes it more likely that people will read it here and that, surely, is the most important thing isn’t it?

Also, I refer to those emails as ‘echoes’ – emails that have long since passed their usefulness or truthfulness, but continue to ‘bounce’ around the net. I have seen missing-persons emails featuring kids from the 90s. Of course, in an ideal world people would do a little research before forwarding emails but its all too easy in today’s FW: FW: FW: world.

In conclusion, help: good, spam: bad. If people reposted this, for example, via bulletin boards rather than emails then the people who care for Matt will be very grateful.
