>>> Again, all You have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all.

>>>
>>> How long would all that take? If each of us sends this e-mail

>>> If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on. PLEASE
>>> HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE $1.30 RANGE AND KEEP THEM DOWN.
>>> THIS CAN REALLY WORK.
