Place

your

> Easterly Drive East Sandwich, MA 02537 #2)Christopher L. Sloan 2200
Hickory
> St. H.S.U. Box #14579 Abilene, TX 79698 #3) Kristen DeJoseph 138 Jansen

Braunfels,
> Texas, 78132 #6) Greg Eisenbeis P.O. Box 33030 Colorado Springs, CO 80933
> STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the
other

on

article

OF

within

name

$1.00

at
> #2 and they each only receive 7 replies, that just made me $16,807.00!!!
> Those 16807 persons will all deliver this message to 300 newsgroups with
my

list,

are

are

of

the

THE

GOOD
