everybody, I have been pestered by an organization called InformedElectorate
asking me if I want to join a group of a half million people who will be
regularly surveyed on important questions of the day. They use a very odd
system of semi-robocalls. On the first call, I said, sure why not? ON the
second call they blasted me with an screed for a donation of 25 dollars to
cover the “large expenses” of their effort. If I weren’t such an old Yankee
skinflint, I might have gone for it. But it began to seem to me that for 12.5
million dollars forms the basis for a mighty good business plan. I am trying
to confirm that it is a scam, but until that time, I thought I would alert you
all. FWIW, they made scambusters. Now, you’re all going to write back
telling me that OF COURSE it’s a scam; why am I so late to the party?
