OK, It says a 20% of the PROFIT. You tell me how to download a large file, burn a CD, label the CD, pack the CD, and mail it anywhere in the world for $5.00 and make a profit. I figure I am pretty much donating my time. If anyone objects to this, I formally withdraw the offer to you. It is, however, still open to anyone who does not object. Sheesh! Try to help people...
