Another stupid startup idea. All those chain letters people get?
Play on their superstition and set up 100 email accounts that
they can send all their email to so that their 'wish' will come
true and they won't have any bad luck that day. Set it up such
that they can send as many as they want to the addresses, but then
charge them for the verification certificate. You can even be
clever and tailor the certificate to the particular email.
