My own personal favorite ad is actually from Technical Analysis of Stocks &
Commodities magazine.  An except from the ad on page 36 of Jan/98 S&C:

"Why did you start KCI?

When you talk to God it's called praying; when God talks to you it's called
self-delusion or schizophrenia.  There is an inner voice that speaks to each
of us at all times.  Eighteen years ago, I was told to share my knowledge of
technical analysis and I would receive blessings beyond my imagination.  5
VBTP is such a blessing responsible for technical miracles."
