Message-ID: <1994Oct14.163015.28844@sei.cmu.edu> Sender: netnews@sei.cmu.edu (Netnews) Organization: Software Engineering Institute Date: Fri, 14 Oct 1994 16:30:15 EDT Date: 1994-10-14T16:30:15-04:00 List-Id: FIVE YEARS AGO, I WAS BROKE, IN DEBT, AND DESPERATE! TODAY I HAVE A VILLA IN TUSCANY, A CHATEAU IN FRANCE, SIX VINTAGE AUTOMOBILES, A LARGE COLLECTION OF OLD MASTERS, AND A SEVEN-DIGIT ANNUAL INCOME!! YOU TOO CAN HAVE WEALTH, FORTUNE, SUCCESS, FAST CARS AND ALL YOU EVER DREAMED OF!!! The simple secret: REUSE! That it. Minimal training, minimal effort, nothing illegal. My library of reusable Ada code is the largest in the world, and I just sit back drinking my own champaign, looking at my own Rembrandts (all eight of them), and raking in the royalties. Did you know, for instance, that a major international airport (sorry - I'm not allowed to say who they are) is paying me $10,000 PER DAY for my reusable baggage handling code? And when it works, that goes up to $25,000! And that's just one customer!! Interested?? Well, here's how YOU can do it too! First, write 100 lines of reusable Ada code. Yes, you read that right - just 100 measly lines. That's the last code you'll ever write in your life. It's the last work you'll ever have to do in your life, because you're gonna be RICH! Next, send those 100 lines to the name at the top of the list below. Now make ten copies of this message, but delete the first name on the list and put your own name as last. Send the message to ten friends. Or, if you don't have ten friends (most Ada programmers don't), send them to ten random readers of this newsgroup. Within a couple of weeks, you will receive TEN MILLION LINES of reusable Ada code, and you will be SET UP FOR LIFE! DO IT TODAY! DO IT NOW!! THIS IS THE CHANCE OF A LIFETIME!!!
