There I was, losing in a battle of insomnia, so I decided to flip around the ol' tube to see if there was anything on at 2:30am other than those "Call me, I'm waiting to ..." 900 ads splattered all over the place. Lo and behold, on the Home Shopping Club, there's an ad enticing members (and non-members, it's easy to join, just ..) to sign up for MCI and get $10 in Spendable Ka$h to boot. So MCI's got a contract with them now? Interesting way to drum up business -- I can imagine those thousands (millions? nah, I have more faith in America, don't know why, but I do) of people dialing up and changing their long distance service the same time they get that really GREAT cubic zirconia 94 caret ring (with gold inlay in a custom setting). Kinda strange, isn't it? Brendan Kehoe | Soon: brendan@cs.widener.edu [ Sometime this week ... pray! ] For now: kehoe@scotty.dccs.upenn.edu | Also: brendan.kehoe@cyber.widener.edu

MCI has a similar offer for members of the Northwest Airlines frequesnt flier club members. Every few pucks you spend on MCI LD you get so many credits to your account.
