Plain fun and it hardly costs anything!
----------------------------------

Tired of all those people who ask you money or those who tell you to call
a certain phone number. Everybody can make you 'rich', but all they do is
make you poor. We do not promise to make you rich at all, but we offer you
a lot of fun! How does this project work?

(1) Go to a department store and you buy a pair of weird or wicked socks.
(2) Through normal mail you send number 1 on the list the pair of socks.
(3) Now you erase the first name on the list and you put your own name on
the bottom.
(4) Send this new edited message to all your e-mail penpalls and aquantances.

Now say you send your message to 25 people, 5 will participate. Each of
those five sends 25 e-mails of which 5 participate. About now you are on
the second level. The next generation will also send 25 e-mail each and 5
will respond. Now you are already on the first level!

And now comes the fun! If things go right you will receive in your mailbox:
5x5x5=125 PAIRS OF SOCKS (or even more if this message is sent to more people)
No longer you have to worry about a pair of socks matching with your new
sweater!

What do you have to loose? Just enter and have fun! Imagine you will maybe
receive a genuine pair of Brasilian Football socks, handcrafted Chinese
leisure socks. everything is possible!

Have fun!

This still running project is the result of a highschoolproject started in
Germany in 1994. This project was started up through normal post, fax,
e-mail and internet newsgroups. Nowadays only the Internet versions are
still 'alive'.
