I received that free Prodigy kit card in the mail and sent it in.
I received a 3.5 disk and two 5.25 disk and a 30 day password
to use Prodigy.  At the end of the month, I wrote cancel
on the bill.  They sent me one letter asking me to try it again.
I didn't respond, and they never bothered me again.  Then,
two weeks later, I received another free kit card and sent it in.
Sure enough, I got another kit.  Same story again.  So, I got
two 3.5 disks for free as far as I am concerned.  

The truly scary thing is that the Prodigy kit is on the top
fifteen software packages being sold for the IBM community.
Are IBM users that green?
