Does anyone know if money burns? Someone once said that you cannot fold a $1
bill more than 7 times, and that if you put a match under one, it will not
burn. I'm not quite fool enought to try (but close enough :-) so does anyone
actually know?

I also have a new idea for a brand-new Internet scam, loosely based on all
the old internet scams. So can anyone give me a clue as to where I can get
people to mail loose cash to put into my paypal account? Do they accept
Checks (Cheques to you limeys), Postal Orders, and IRCs?

I already know a good source of gullible mugs, I live near a computer-freak
shop :-)

Oh yes, a threat! You have got to print this out six times and make party
hats out of them. It you don't then you may save money on printer ink and
paper :-( and that IS a threat to a computer freak :-)

They couldn't say it if it wasn't true.

The US Treasury gets rid of old bills (those being taken out of
circulation) by burning them.
