I think you had better read the rules governing advertising on usenet
before you find yourself in a lot of trouble I know you'd much rather
avoid.  Take your advertising to a newsgroup that is designed for such
things and stop being one of the jerks who think that all you have to do
is buy a modem, get a net account, and you can get rich by running your
junk on everything you can connect to.  You won't get $$$$$$$$$  from me
and I would recommend that noone else send you any either.

I am also sending a copy of this entire text to the administrator of
ucla.net as a formal complaint.  Maybe he or she can wise you up.  Have a
nice day.
