Interesting idea.  Change the name.  THUGCO sounds like a pack of hoodlums,
cutthroats, and muggers.

Actually, all I'd envisoned was putting together a deal to get a bunch of
these cables made, signing up enough people from this group to finance the
order, and disbanding after it was all over.  But I suppose most of the

business arrangement.  I'll be happy to offer what little help I can if you
go through with this.
