So it wouldn't be the first one but it could help to ensure THG and the 
list stays around for a very long time. I donno... Just a thought.


At the price of machines today a million would be a little excessive don't 
you think?


Uh, admin fees


You could try to sell your soul on eBay.  Oh wait a minute someone has 
already done that too.  What you need is a novel idea that people will buy.


I once had this idea of a anti-christ type novel that would be about an 
evil chip business and an evil software business. The evil chippers would 
build some kind of evilness in the chips. It would lay dormant (evil chip 
co. commanded by hell to do this but don't know why) and the evil software 
co. (would be told by hell, not knowing why) to put additional evil code 
(that would work the evil chip stuff in a really bad, bad way) in the OS. 
Evil chip and evil software would be for the coming of HELL 666 and all 
that crap, it would be triggered by BHOS (black hats of satan) but would 
ultimately be thwarted by white hats (unknowingly) doing Gods work. Gee, 
maybe I should contact Mel Gibson.
