Hello,                                  Sunday  February 14th, 1999 

I would like to introduce myself.  I am the Director of Marketing for the award 
winning INDULGE magazine - The Art of Fine Living.  I have a great 
opportunity for your site and our magazine to work in a partnership together.

INDULGE'S objective is to dramatically increase our subscription base for

 both can benefit tremendously.   (Please note our demographics below).
