Off Topic? (which topic?)

by Spectors

In response to those who thought my virus warning should have had "Off Topic" in the subject line....
 
a) I guess I thought it was important enough for people to read
 
and
 
b) I did try to adhere to the spirit of the "Off Topic Advocates" by putting in the subject line the words: "Beware of attachments=Can forwarded text messages have viruses?"
 
which I presume would be an even clearer indicator that the topic wasn't about World Systems Political Economy than the phrase "Off Topic".
 
Then again, perhaps someone may have thought it was another review of "Guns, Germs,& Steel"  (what with the reference to viruses..........)
 
 
Cheers,

P.S.==what's with the new supposed massive oil discovery in the Caspian Region?
