McDonnell Douglas Military Aircraft Client Survey



	I thought you might enjoy this one....

Subject:  McDonnell Douglas Military Aircraft Client Survey




   This was allegedly posted very briefly on the McDonnell Douglas website,
by an employee there who obviously has a sense of humor. The company, of
course, does not have a sense of humor, and made the web department take it
down immediately
