> 18,h sections 1302 NS 1341 of Postal Lottery Laws). This clarifies the

> Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:

> STEP 1:
> ------
>
> Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each

>
> PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST.
> $1 US DOLLAR PROCESSING FEE IN ENCLOSED.
>
> (THIS IS KEY AS THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT LEGAL SINCE YOU ARE PAYING FOR
> AND LATER OFFERING A SERVICE).
>
> Now get 6 $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of
> paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope to prevent
> theft/robbery. Then, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and

> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS FAST WITH YOUR WEB BROWSER:
>
> The fastest way to post a newsletter:
>
> Highlight and COPY(Ctrl-C) the text of this posted message and
> PASTE(Ctrl-V) it into a plain text editor(as Wordpad) and save it.
> After you have made the necessary changes that are stated above,
> simply COPY(Ctrl-C) and PASTE(Ctrl-V) the text into the message
> composition window, after selecting a newsgroup, and post it! (Or
> you can attach the file, without writing anything to the message
> window.)
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> If you have Netscape Navigator 3.0 do the following:
>
> 1. Click on any newsgroup like normal, then click on 'TO NEWS'. This
> will bring up a box to type a message in.
> 2. Leave the newsgroup box like it is, change the subject box to
> something flashy, something to catch the eye, as "$$$ NEED CASH $$$?!!
> READ HERE!$!$!$" or "$$$!!!MAKE FAST CASH, YOU CAN'T LOSE!!!$$$". Or
> you can use my subject title.
> 3. Now click on 'ATTACHMENTS'. Then click on 'ATTACH FILE'. Find your

> !QUICK TIP!
> (For Netscape Navigator 3.x and above)
>
> You can post this message to many newsgroups at a time, by simply
> selecting a newsgroup near the top of the screen, hold down the SHIFT,
> and then select a newsgroup near the bottom of the screen. All of the
> newsgroups in/between will be selected. After that, you follow/do the
> basic steps, stated below at this letter, except of step #1. You can
> go to the page stated below in this letter and click on a newsgroup to
> open up the newsgroups window. Once you've done this, in the same

> ALL
> MESSAGES'. Now you can see all the newsgroups and you can apply easier
> the above tip.
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> If you have MS Internet Explorer do the following:
>
> 1. Go to the newsgroups and press 'POST AN ARTICLE'. To the new window
> type your headline in the subject area and then click in the large

> NOTE: All versions of MS Internet Explorer are similar to each other,

>
> BASIC STEPS FOR POSTING:
> 1. Find a newsgroup and you click on it.
> 2. You click on 'POST AN/NEW ARTICLE' or 'TO NEWS' or anything else
> similar to these.
> 3. You type your flashy headline in the subject box.
> 4. Now, either you attach the file containing your amended letter, or

> 5. Finally, you click on 'SEND' or 'POST' or 'OK', whatever is there.

> Now the WHY part:

>
> Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a very low

> OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM

> $6.00!
> AMAZING! And as I said 5 responses is actually VERY LOW!
> Average is probable 20 to 30!
>
> So lets put those figures at just 15 responses per person. Here is

>
> at #6 $15.00
>
> at #5 $225.00

> When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest
