- Oh no, not again.
-
- Craig is an _english_ boy who made this request several years ago. His cancer
- is now cured (or in remission) and neither he, nor anyone else, wants _any_
- cards any more.
-
- If all the money that has been spent sending unwanted cards to Craig (or his
- various alter egos) had been spent on cancer research, we might have a cure by
- now!
-
- DO NOT SEND ANY CARDS TO CRAIG, OR THE CHILDREN'S WISH FOUNDATION!!!!
