Gee, Jeff,

I hope you haven't been robbed of much money with this
promotion. I am as open as the next guy. I am a baby
boomer. I was a full-pledged hippie and often enough
still think like one. All of us from then would love
to spend the time on what you are promoting, we don't
have the time. I guess you might even be able to say,
at this point, wrong Century.

As far as the Page itself, you can't expect anyone to
spend an hour or so going through what they know to be
some sort of pitch. Way, way smaller and more
intriguing. FREE is not a Golden goose anymore. There
is so much free stuff out there in information highway
land that a house full of personal computers couldn't
hold it all. Really, you need to start with a one or
two page intro or you will not get anywhere no matter
what your UPLINE says.

I do not mean to be harsh or rash. I just feel strong
about your particular situation. The younger
generation is not into the spiritual stuff. Their
folks did that. And their folks are to busy paying
mortgages to meditate and most know that it will not
happen in twelve days. I spent four or five years out
there and it did not change much toward my spiritual
healing. And the gurus where just as good then.

PEACE,
ODAAT (One Day At A Time),
And God Bless You and Yourn,
