The product is 'GoJi' juice, you may have seen it on Oprah, as Dr Oz and many others hail it as a 'super food'. This is a very low cost, exceptional opportunity to be 'top line' in a new country and will generate income, if not very big income for those that get involved early. I have forwarded some information below; if you think you want to pursue it further please let me know; I will formerly introduce myself with references if necessary and the person going over for 4 months is our top person in Canada, Howard Solomon, we can arrange a call to explore the options if you like; if it is not for you, possibly you would know someone interested in a very 'hot' turn-key international business opportunity, incredible timing.

I found your email on a ‘Blog Germany’ site; I live near Toronto and am contacting you for an opportunity; I know you may think this too good to be true, this isn’t, it’s true.

Maybe you try your new E-Mail address in the future, since we have a new luxury computer with fast DSL-access. Nevertheless sometimes unidentified mails end up in the SPAM, which I do not check regularly. Best wishes, Charlie and Frank Dear Ian,

I'd go read them on the beach or under a tree, on my own time, alone as if the person who'd written was having a private conversation with me. It was precious. Had I been born 25 years later, I'd be picking up email at an internet cafe surrounded by dozens of others doing the same thing. Somehow we've gained something by all the possibilities technology has opened up to us, but lost something as well. Hi,

I was a letter-writer myself back before the internet took over. Eventually, all of those exchanges died off. They've been replaced by email - but my emails never have reached the same quality as my letters - the same amount of introspection or quality of writing. They could - why not? But they don't. Why? Is it because I know the recipient is going to open it at work and barely have time to brush through it, instead of receiving it when they get home, and being able to sit back on the couch with it? You’ve given me a bit to think about.
