It's the best and simplest idea yet. No wonder BG is so rich.

It would just need you to set your email program to block or very heavily scrub mail coming from free email services and then you will find the whole system will fall into place.

We would be well up on the deal, more of our newsletters would get deleivered, get more attention and lead to more orders. Blind spammers would go out of business. They work on the basis of converting 1 : 100,000. If they had to pay half a cent to send an email then each sale would cost $500.

Think of how much time you waste deleting junk mail, what you might delete by mistake, what you miss getting all together. Then calculate how many emails you send a month. In our case it's about 32,000, so it would cost us $160 a month $5.33 a day.

Bring it on is what we say.
