By the way, Larry - the fact that you either don't know how to spell the 
word 'matter' or are careless enough to let a spelling error like this 
slip into a document which is evidently meant to be read by prospective 
customers indicates to me that you aren't particularly interested in 
attention to detail. This error seems to call into question your 
contention that you are a 'retired manager of a major U.S. corporation'. 
It also makes your prospective subscribers think twice about paying you 
for your services- after all, what happens if you let a typo like that 
slip through in your code?

My suggestion to you is - ditch the site, get a new one, and start all 
over - your credibility has been seriously undermined before you even 
had a chance to establish it. But then again, in light of this spammy 
junkmail, credibility probably isn't your priority, since sharks like 
you prey on the credulous.

The majority meet with failure because of their lack of persistence in creating new plans to take the place of those which fail.
