Just more reinforcement to stick with them. It might seem like a small thing, but overall tey do come through!

Hey, the future is pretty cool.

In the same e-mail it gave me the option to pay for same hour delivery. Only costs an extra $2.50 and they teleport it directly into my hand.

Dood! Buy some of 'em in the future and sell them back here in the present for a tidy little profit!
