I have a funny story to tell about a recent fiasco involving me and technology. This story is entirely true and I can't believe it happened to me.
I'm currently enrolled in a class titled "Religion and the Holocaust." Most of the discussion in this class has centered on the role of the Protestant church, specifically the German Christian Movement, in Nazi Germany. A good amount of time has also been spent on reviewing anti-semitic propaganda. Among this propaganda was a film titled "The Eternal Jew" which we began watching but were unable to finish because the DVD could not read my professor's disc. Our professor wanted the class to see a section of the film depicting Kosher butchering as a sadistic ritual of animal torture. After class, I found the section of the film on Youtube.
My university uses a program, ANGEL, which, among other things, allows students to send mass emails to their entire class. I logged into ANGEL and composed a message containing a link to the video clip. I proofread, and then sent the message out to what I believed my Religion and the Holocaust class. I didn't realize my mistake until a girl from my Business Strategy class sent me a reply saying that she had missed the class and wanted to know what discussion we had relating to the clip. I immediately sent an apology to the class, but that didn't save me from the looks that one would expect to receive after sending a Nazi propaganda film to ones business class.
I hope you enjoyed this story. This is the clip, in case anyone is interested.
Stay Tuned...

That's a good one. I never miss-mass-communicated, but now that you have, I will heed your warning and be very careful.
