[Hidden-tech] why I'm documenting Sheldon's program

[Tom Adams]

Because Sheldon is an awesome guy with more energy and sales smarts  
than anyone this side of the Mississippi. (and because it may turn out  
to be a video component of a sales DVD that I'm producing for him.)

If you're wondering if it's worth it or how it's gonna help  
you..don't. just go.
you won't be dissapointed.

(I did not receive any compensation for the above remarks.. although I  
might make sheldon buy me a beer or two;-}

Regards,
