It’s worth $2,000. You’ll have to trust me on that. And if you win, you’ll have to send me the change in USD via Western Union to my address here on E Street, Washington DC. You’ll get a tax write off, support crippled children, and be eligible for software that will make your computer run 10 times faster. Did I say 10 times? I meant 100 times!
