>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)
>put your name and address on the paper, 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:
