ANNOUNCING Visual Basic Dumping Service

What do you do with TOXIC CODE ?  Yes, I mean Visual Basic versions 1 to 
4 and standard to professional. You can't simply keep this stuff in your 
office.  The EPA ( Extremists Programmers Association ) won't let you 
simply slip the stuff into the trash.

I will safely dispose of this TOXIC CODE for you.  The fees are 
affordable, only $0.20 per megabyte - same as storing it on a hard drive.

Just pack up the code, disks, manuals, and miscellaneous paperwork and 
ship to :

NB Research
1927 Harbor Blvd, Suite 305
Costa Mesa CA 92627
(714) 645-9178

and include the payment according to the product for 
disposal.
