Hello, why don't you join me in making (potentially) thousands of dollars
in this easy, co-operative venture?
Here's how it works:
Get 5 pieces of paper, and write the following on each:
"Please add me to your mailing list. Your name was in position number-"
Then look at the following list, and add the appropriate position number
to each piece of paper, addressing an envelope to correspond to it.
Enclose a $1 bill in each piece of paper,(I'm using American currency to
standardize the amount; besides, the Canadian $1 coin doesn't mail well)
add your name and address, and mail to each person on the list.
Now you have to compose your own message for posting to as many
newsgroups as possible. Use the list in this article, but do the
following:
1. take the first name and address off the list
2. move the four remaining names and addresses up one position
3. add your own name and address in the number 5 position
You would have to post to at least 200 newsgroups, and there are probably
ways of saving and re-using your message, depending on the software you
have. I'm not going to tell you I've made $50,000 doing this; to be
honest, this is the first time I've tried it. But I'm a scientist by
trade, and it seems as if this would work. Let's try it. Here's your
list:
1. G. Arrigo
P.O. Box 8952
Schlieren
Switzerland
2. S. Hines
9804 Kingsman
Dallas, TX 75228
USA
3. A. LeBlanc
C.P. 764
Vercheres QC
Canada J0L 2R0
4. D. Downs

Edmonton AB
Canada T5Y 1N2
5. R. Strickland
Suite 119
#305 4625 Varsity Drive N.W.
Calgary AB
Canada T3A 0Z9
Print out this article first so you'll have the list. That's all there
is to it! Good Luck! Ross Strickland.
