HI !!!

This letter is about an opportunity to make an incredible amount of
Money ( CASH !!!) in a very short time. The cost is only $6.00! This is the 16th 
day since I started receiving $ cash, and so far I have received $5,845 (in $1 
Bills)...so 
I guess this is really working! Give it a try! All I did was follow the instructions 
in 
the letter that I received below, and sent out some e-mail to people who responded 
to my ads.

Here is a testimony from one of the thousands who have benefited from
this simple investment plan.

"I'm a retired attorney, and about a year ago a man came to me with a
letter. The letter he brought to me is the same letter before you now. He asked 
me to verify that this letter was legal. I told him that I would review it and get 
back to him. When I first read the letter, I thought it was some off the wall idea to 
make 
money. A week later I met again with my client to discuss the issue. I told him that 
the letter would be all right. I was curious about the letter, so he told me how it 
worked. I thought it was a long shot, so I decided against participating. Before my 
client left,
I asked him to keep me updated as to his results. About two months later he called me 
to 
tell me that he had received more than $800,000.00 in cash! I didn't believe him. 
So he asked me to try the plan and see for myself."

"I thought about it for a few days and decided that there was not much
to lose. I followed the instructions exactly and mailed out 200 letters. Sure
enough the money started coming in! It came slowly at first, but after three 
weeks I was getting more than I could open in a day. After three months the money 
stopped coming. I kept a precise record of my earnings and at the end it totalled
$868,439.00. I earn a good living as an attorney, but as anyone in the legal 
profession will tell you, there is a lot of stress that comes with the territory. I 
decided
if things worked out, I would retire from practice and play golf. This time I 
sent out 500 letters. Well, three months later, I had totalled $2,344,178.00."

"I met my old client for lunch to find out exactly how it works. He told
me that there were a few similar letters going around. What made this one
different is the fact that there were six names on the letter, not three like 
most others. That act alone resulted in more returns. The other factor was the advice 
I gave him in making sure the whole thing was perfectly legal, since no one wants
to risk doing anything illegal. I bet now you are curious about what little
changes I told him to make. Well, if you send a letter like this one, to be
legal, you must sell something if you expect to receive a dollar. I told him 
that anyone sending a dollar must received something in RETURN. So when you send 
a dollar to each of the six names on the list, you must include a slip
of paper saying, "Please add me to your mailing list" and include your name and
mailing address. This is the key to the program. The item you will receive for your 
dollar 
sent, is THIS letter and the right to earn thousands."

Follow the simple instructions EXACTLY, and in less than three months
you should receive MORE THAN $800,000.00 IN COLD HARD CASH!

1) IMMEDIATELY send $1.00 (US$) to each of the six people listed below. 
THE SOONER YOU SEND THE "$1.00 LETTERS" THE SOONER YOU CAN 
START GETTING A RETURN! Wrap the dollar in a note saying 
"PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST".


1. D. Dasher 21115 Devonshire St. #162, Chatsworth, CA 91311

2. Randy Mahoney 212 Northfolk Rd San Marcus, TX 78666

3. Frank Kitchen 803 Mays Street Winnsboro, LA 71295

4. L.Erickson 7302 Longhollow Rd Colfax, WA 99111

5. Ginger Bowen PO Box 303 Lindsay, OK 73052
6. Ed Wilbur Po.Box 640-531 Beverly Hills,FL 34464 


2) REMOVE the NAME and ADDRESS NEXT to #1 at the top of the list and 
move the rest of the names UP one position. Then place YOUR name
in the # 6 spot. This is best done by saving this to a file and entering
your information on line # 6. Be careful when you type the addresses. 
Don't forget to PROOF-READ them. Make SURE that the names and 
addresses are correct. 

3) When you have COMPLETED the above instructions, you have several 
options on how you market the letter - through the Postal Service, through E-mail, 
through
posting in "FREE CLASSIFIED ADS" and "NEWSGROUPS" ON THE INTERNET, or 
through whatever way you think is most effective.

To send this letter out to thousands of people and increase your
profits, I suggest you use a Bulk E-mail company. Call 207-896-7915 to have your 
letter e-mailed. They are fast, effective and give excellent service.
100,000 emailings costs just $89.00 and they are running a special now

This letter has been proven perfectly legal for all of the above as long
as you follow the instructions, because you are purchasing membership in our 
exclusive mailing list. The more you send out, the more YOU will make. We strongly 
encourage you to 

Hi, this is for you.....

Dear Friend:

Do you need a change in your life?

Do you remember when the entire world seemed like it was
yours for the taking?

Do you remember a time when all of your hopes and dreams seemed
like they were attainable?

First of all, let's be honest. You are not going to earn $50,000 in
20 days. It just isn't going to happen. Anyone who tells you that
you can, is not being truthful.  But, let me tell you about a plan
that can possibly make all your dreams come true...keep reading!



I would like to tell you about a plan that has changed my life.
Take a calculator and figure in the worst possible scenario. Decide
for yourself. If you decide that you want to take control of your
life and move forward...that is your decision.



Here's the step by step plan summary.

1)You order the 4 reports listed below ($5 each). They come to you
by email.

2)Save a copy of this entire letter and put your name at report #1.
Move all other names  down. (You will be removing the person at the
level 4)

3)Use any of the hundreds of bulk email services out there.

4)Orders will come right to your door. Simply email them the report
they ordered.Isn't that about as easy as it gets???



Your cost to participate in this program is practically nothing
(surely you can afford $20 and initial bulk mailing cost). You
obviously already have a computer and an Internet connection and
e-mail is FREE!

The primary method of building your downline is bulk email.

Let's say that you decide to start small, just to see how it goes.
Let's assume that you and all those involved email out only 2,000
programs each. Let's also assume that the mailing receives a 0.5%
response. The response could be much better. Also, many people will
email out more than 2,000 programs. With a 0.5% response, that is
only 10 orders for Report #1.  Those 10 respond  by sending out
2,000 programs each for a total of 20,000.  Out of those 0.5%, 100
people respond and order 20,000.  The 0.5% response rate to that is
1,000 orders for Report #3. Those 1,000 send out 2,000 each for a
total of 2,000,000.  The 0.5% response rate is 10,000 orders for
report #4. That is 10,000 $5 bills for you. CASH!!!

*

Your total income in this example is: $50+ $500+ $5000+ $50,000 for
a total of $55,550!!!

*

REMEMBER FRIEND. THIS IS ASSUMING 1,990 OUT OF THE 2,000 PEOPLE YOU
MAIL TO WILL DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AND TRASH THIS PROGRAM!!!  DARE
TO THINK FOR A MOMENT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF EVERYONE, OR EVEN HALF
MAILED OUT 100,000 INSTEAD OF 2,000. Believe, most people will do
just that, and more!!!

Friend, you do the math. You look at the opportunity, if you decide
that you would like to participate in this program, the decision is
yours.

Recently, the Federal Trade Commission has tried to stop chain
letters which promise you will make tons of money by participating.  
Such chain letters are NOT legal because of this reason. This new
program complies with all the rules.

To be legal, a chain letter must offer a product and must not
promise you will get rich by taking part. If you look at the
program, do the math and decide that you will make money, it is
your opinion. No such claim is here.

However, I do strongly encourage you to do the calculations.
Figure out the worst possible response and see how it calculates.

Your orders come right to your door and you send your reports via
email. You are not involved in personal selling.

You do it privately in your own home, store, or office. This is the
EASIEST plan anywhere. It is simply order filling by email.

Order the four reports shown on the list below. You can't sell them
if you don't order them!!!.

For each report, send $5.00 CASH, the  NAME  NUMBER OF THE REPORT
YOU ARE ORDERING, YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS, and YOUR NAME AND RETURN
ADDRESS (in case there's a problem).  MAKE SURE YOUR RETURN ADDRESS
IS ON THE ENVELOPE IN CASE OF ANY MAIL PROBLEMS!

Report #1 will tell you how to download bulk email software and
email addresses so you can send it out to thousands while you
sleep. Remember that 50,000+ new people are joining the Internet
every month.

By the way, there are over 50 million email addresses with millions
more joining the Internet each year, so we don't worry about
"saturation".  People are used to seeing and hearing the same
advertisements every day on radio/TV.  How often have you received
the same pizza flyers on your door. Then, one day you are hungry
for pizza and immediately recall the flyer. Same thing with this
letter. I received this letter many times- then one day I decided
it was time to try it.

This program will not require you to come into contact with people
or take any telephone

 you may want to invlove yourself in development of gimp 1.4 or 2.0 if you
 really want to make really big changes.

That's right. We won't accept any changes for Gimp-1.2 unless its an 
obvious bugfix and I'd even agree to declare the batchmode officially
broken and release 1.2 before we do major changes to the core. 
Noone can stop you from releasing patches (or a patched gimp) however.
 
Don't get me wrong: Any help is greatly appreciated and we will be very
happy to incorparate your changes into the 1.3 development branch once
we start it. 


Salut, Sven
