Write your reply.

assistant: I am offering any one with a network to promote a chance to advertise your
network or bbs game league FREE.
I have dedicate one of my web pages to BBS echo style networks. Here I make
available for downloading a network zipped information packet. I however will
not permit "adult style" information packets on my site.
All you have to do is send me an information packet with your nodelist and
application in a zipped file.  I will then add it to my web site for
downloading. If you also have a website for the network send me the web page
address.
the website is at:         http://www.netten.net/~tammykam/NETWORKS.HTM
netmail the zip file to:   1:123/424                  or
email the zip file to:     tammykam@vantek.net
Also, sometime this month our new site at:
         http://www.vantek.net/pages/tammykam/index.html
will open up (we are working on it now).
All during the month of April we will be writing a webpage for
               BBS style leagues.
It will have league information packets available for downloading. So if you
also have a league to promote zip it up and pass it on to me with the name of
the league or the leagues number like LEAGUE 208  or WorldWide League. If it
also has a website let me hear from you.
I hope to hear from you as we work to promote BBSing around the globe.
Cyberly yours,
