Spam

Most Spam is just irritating. But sometimes I get stuff that is truly mind-boggling. Not for the outrageous claims, but for the fact that the sender seriously thinks they'll get some business out of it.

We've written about several old cable-car systems in Hong Kong. Which got this gentleman so excited he sensed a business opportunity:
