You are fucking stupid.

No, you're not kidding, you are lying.

No, this is a Usenet text based Newsgroup, not an organization.
We are not chartered as a non-profit, never have been, never will be, there
is no board of directors, nothing.
THIS IS NOT AN ORGANIZATION AND IT DOES NOT REQUIRE WORKING CAPITAL OR
QUALIFY AS AN ORGANIZATION UNDER ANY STRETCH OF THE IMAGINATION.

Again, you are fucking stupid.
They have a minimum order of 200 cookbooks, which you order from the onset.
The cookbooks can cost as little as $2 per, up to $10 per, depending upon
printing options, shipping options, etc.
The option you say you like costs $5.30 per book for the minimum order of
200.
They don't sell them for you, they charge you up front for the minimum
order, and you sell them.
Stop trying to scam everyone.

It doesn't say anywhere on that website that they are gonna market the books
for you.

YOU ARE ABOUT AS SHARP AS WATER, AHWW has no assets.
This is a fucking newsgroup, not an organization, no working capital, no
debts, nothing.
GO THE FUCK AWAY.

Oh for God's sake, this scam is designed to fund your pathetic Heart's Dream
Project?
Fuck you, it failed miserably, you goddamn losers couldn't procure a quarter
acre of land in 7 years, please take this scam someplace else.

YOU HAVE TO BUY 200 BOOKS MINIMUM FROM THIS COMPANY @ $5.30/BOOK.

THIS NEWSGROUP NEEDS NO WORKING CAPITAL.
WANDERER IS TRYING TO SHOW SOME FUNDING FOR HEART'S DREAM.
