Those were my thoughts too. I've recieved several and I think this could be a major trailhead.

I'm afraid that this topic will sink to the bottom of the heap and be ignored.

But a good idea, nonetheless.

Interestingly, a google pulls up DDRManiaX....

the same place our dear Lenny PM was traced to during the failed "Lenny's Xanga" ARG.

As an FYI, all the Chicken P. McStinksalot (or similiar) emails ARE spam, and email address harvesters. They are short, and non-sensical to attempt to pass any spam filters you might have, and when they don't get back a Daemon error that the address doesn't exist, they add it to a list that they sell to real spammers. So it is not a trailhead at all, its just a phishing attempt for live email addresses.
