  10. Can you believe it?! When NORFED started, even the patriot community thought we wouldn't last a month! Now after three years, I am happy to report that the 'little currency that could' has grown to 1000 Redemption Centers, approximately 10,000 users, over 100,000 Certificates with over $1,000,000 in circulation. To commemorate this historic feat, NORFED launches its first mass marketing over the Internet in October. NORFED moves to 3819 East Morgan Avenue
  11. Equally amazing is that thanks to Sarah Bledsoe, manager of the NORFED Fulfillment Office, we have our own building and it is located on Morgan Avenue! As most of you will recall, the Federal Reserve was created at J. P. Morgan's estate on Jekyll Island in 1910. Please address all new correspondence and orders to NORFED, 225 N Stockwell Rd, Evansville, Indiana 47715. New fax number: 775-218-1847. "Terrible Tuesday" in New York and the Pentagon
  12. With so many articles and TV coverage regarding the bombings of the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in DC generated, I will be brief. For some time, I have spoken about developing peace loving The Liberty Dollar during these "Good Times". Well, I think the "Good Times" are over. Regardless of what we do or what they do or who did it, neither the world nor America will ever return to the times before September 11, 2001. As bad as "Terrible Tuesday" was, there are four items that are equally appalling to me. (1.) The Selling of War to America. CNN's use of "America's New War" headline turns my stomach and makes me wonder where the "Give Peace a Chance" generation is now. It simply reminds me of the adage, 'Billions for War - not a Penny for Peace'. (2.) The misguided focus of the controlled mainstream media to brainwash the populous towards "who" and not "why". Oh yes there has been a bit of soul searching but only a bit. The People should be asking why are people so angry with America to do such desperate acts? And yes, we should find out "who" but only "why" will

bring peace. (3.) The alarming rush of our government "servants" to sell off our liberties for supposedly more security. This is total bull feathers and should be viewed as a major assault on the People and our God given rights! Please do not let those bastards rob us for any reason. This is all just another bigger, better Hegalian plan that has been the way of our government for far too long. (4.) And finally, given the facts according to information made public by the New York Times on Oct. 28, 1993, FBI agent John Anticev and bureau associates were heavily involved with Islamic extremists in every stage of the bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993 by providing funds, equipment, supplies, support and training to the actual perpetrators. I can not help but have every reason to believe that the same state of affairs continued and existed regarding Tuesday's mass atrocities in NYC and DC. In other words, our criminal government may have had a hand in these terrible events just as they orchestrated and then let Pearl Harbor happen. So at this terrible time for our country, the victims and their families let us remember the terrible lessons learned from what our government has done repeatedly at Ruby Ridge, Waco, Oklahoma, TWA 800, etc. and the words of George Washington, "…government is a fearful master". I pray we do not let the war mongering globalists turn "Terrible Tuesday" into their profitable World War III. Affiliate Program…Please RE-REGISTER… 4. YES! THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM IS HERE TO STAY. PLEASE ASSIST US IN RE- REGISTERING YOUR REDEMPTION CENTER IN THE NEW DATABASE IF YOU HAVE NOT DONE SO. PLEASE READ THE QUESTION OF THE MONTH FOR ADDITIONAL INFO. A long time ago, when I was less than half my age, I nearly froze to death while hitching through Terre Haute, Indiana. It was Sunday morning and none of the good, church going folks were going very far and of course none would have anything to do with a longhaired hitchhiker standing along Interstate 70. While standing out there for over five hours and then scoring the ride of my life, I developed the Hitchhiker Philosophy: The longer the wait the better the ride. This Philosophy has helped me deal with life's many indignities over the years and may well best describe NORFED's new Affiliate Program - the be-all of Internet marketing and the single best way for us to Change the money / Change the country. Announcing Your New RC # and the FREE Affiliate Program for all Redemption Centers even if you are not going to use it: TABLE OF CONTENTS:

  1. Important, your RC number needs to be changed
  2. Introduction to the free Affiliate Program
  3. Best Part, get more money as an Affiliate
  4. IMPORTANT: Even if you are NOT going to become an Affiliate, all existing Redemption Centers need to re-register - as if you are going to become an affiliate - so that you can get a new RC account number. PLEASE NOTE YOU DO NOT USE YOUR OLD RC# TO SIGN UP FOR YOUR NEW RC#. Your assistance with this important upgrade is greatly appreciated.
  5. INTRODUCTION: Thank you so much for all that you have done. Because of your efforts, NORFED has prospered for three years and put over ONE MILLION Liberty Dollars into circulation! This success has also provided NORFED with the time and money to develop an Affiliate Program that will be highly beneficial to you - even if you are inactive. And the best

part is that it is totally free to Redemption Centers. This is the first of many changes; however, none of these can be passed on to you without your participation. To get started, NORFED invites you to make more money, do more good and have more fun with its Affiliate Program - the Internet's answer to marketing. An Affiliate Program is simply a software program that tracks your Internet referrals and pays you money. It works by you placing a banner, ad or just a paragraph of link text on your site that is linked to NORFED's home page. It is easy to install and once you complete the registration it will run continuously on your site, without any other involvement and generate money for you while it returns our great country to value - one Liberty Dollar at a time! Neat eh? Please go to: www.libertydollar.org/affiliate.asp for your new RC # and to register for the Affiliate Program. Select NEW ACCOUNT and follow the prompts. If you are not going to be an Affiliate, just fill in the info and the program will generate your new RC #. It is free, easy and should not take much time. When you register you will receive detailed instructions on what to do to become an Affiliate. You will be asked to create your own personal endorsement statement or it will default to G. Edward Griffin's statement. You will also be given a unique URL to link your site to NORFED's site and asked to choose from a selection of banners, ads, paragraphs or simple link text to be placed on your site. As soon as anyone clicks from your site to the NORFED home page using your unique URL a "cookie" will tag that prospect introduced by you. When they visit the NORFED site that cookie ensures that they are tagged as "your prospect" on the order form or Redemption Center application. It is impossible for you to "lose" any introductions. For example: If a prospect clicks through from your site and does not take any action at that time you will not lose that introduction. If later on they manually go to our site (by typing in the address www.libertydollar.org rather than coming from your site) they will still be tagged as your prospect. If the visitor becomes a Redemption Center during that follow-up visit to the NORFED website you will still receive your sponsorship fee. All Sponsorship Fees and Referral Fees will be paid monthly, just as before. In fact, we have installed a new accounting program to give us better reporting, faster order fulfillment and to keep track of the added business that your affiliated site will generate. 3. BEST PART: To introduce the Affiliate Program, NORFED will pay you $1.00 Liberty Dollar for every 10 hits you receive in the first 30 days you are signed on to the Affiliate Program! Regardless if they place an order or not! Sign up for the Affiliate Party TODAY and start getting money immediately. Put as many banners on your site as you wish, make more money and do more good for our great country. Thank you very much for your support! For all other questions, please email [email protected]. Thanks again for your continued support to return America to value - one Liberty Dollar at a time. I wish you the very best and much success to "make money, do good and have fun" with the new Affiliate Program. What are RCs supposed to do? 5. Ever wonder what a RC is supposed to do? Well, you don't have to do anything. In fact, NORFED is different. As you know there are: No Dues… No Meetings… No Obligations… No Time Requirements… There are seven things you can do to make money, do good and have fun if you want to. 1. The most

helpful thing you can do is sponsor two RCs and "mother" your two RCs to sponsor two RCs each. Simply show The Liberty Dollar to anyone who you discuss political events with and ask them to become a Redemption Center. If you don't ask - you don't get. Before, just 5% of the population (approx. 14 million) become RCs, the current fraudulent, immoral, fiat government money will capitulate. Certainly, spending $250 to become a RC, getting $100 back in The Liberty Dollars, plus $200 for sponsoring two RCs is better than giving $250 to any political entity. In these "good times" we are simply interested in using The Liberty Dollar in identifying the "Choir". Please don't try to talk anyone into using the currency. Just show it to them. If their interest reveals them as part of the "Choir", then ask them to become a Redemption Center. If not, move on. So if you really want to do something about our country - all it takes to Change the Money/Change the Country is for you to sponsor two RCs. It is a simple mathematical formula for success: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512… 14 million. 2. The other most important thing that a RC can do is to seek publicity. The Liberty Dollar is "newsworthy". Simply show the currency and the newspaper articles that you got with your first order to the editor of your local newspaper or the local talk show host. Explain to him that the new gold and silver currency is now being introduced in your community and ask him for an article or an interview. Point out to him that this is newsworthy and part of a national effort to return America to value - one Liberty Dollar at a time. There you will have an article or an interview that will help launch your RC. 3. Make 25% on your money and do greater good. Get 100 Silver Libertys at $7.50 each and use them at the Face Value of $10.00. You make 25% on your money! 4. Place the NORFED Affiliate Program on your site, or on someone else's site, or advertise The Liberty Dollar to sponsor more Redemption Centers. 5. C arry the currency and a naked Silver Liberty with your loose change. 6. R ead the Vocabulary on the back and show the NORFED video too. 7. K eep the Faith, spread the Hope and be Charitable. Life is short. We may not repeal the Federal Reserve Act in our lifetime. But if we never start, we will never reach our goal of a fair and moral monetary system. Keep the faith and sponsor another RC. Please enjoy yourself and protect your future with The Liberty Dollar. Just becoming a Redemption Center is noteworthy. Now it is up to you. The future of the country is literally in your hands. Thank you for becoming a Redemption Center. Rare 1998 Silver Libertys available 1. A few months ago, I found a roll of 1998 Silver Libertys issued by NORFED from day one on October 1, 1998 to December 31, 1998. As many of you probably don't know, this Silver Liberty is considerably different from any of the other Silver Liberty as it has the date 1998 on the obverse in place where TRUST IN GOD is currently. And the reverse contains a heraldic design of ancient symbols with the legend, THE SHELTER SYSTEM. Although I don't have any records to check how many NORFED issued, I would guess that was only 3000 to 5000 were issued, making these very rare and collectable items for any RC that wants a complete set of Silver Libertys. So in commemoration of NORFED's third anniversary, I am offering these 20 rare Silver Libertys for $20 each on a first come, first served basis. Please call NORFED to order. Vocabulary 2. Words are important. And as they have special meanings, a special vocabulary has grown up around

The Liberty Dollar and NORFED. For that reason, here is the first NORFED Vocabulary. Please copy/paste/print at will. S ILVER CERTIFICATE: A paper warehouse receipt for a specific weight of .999 fine silver • issued by a third party that is insured and guaranteed by independent audit. S ILVER LIBERTY: The one ounce round .999 fine silver coin-like item that is deposited into • the warehouse prior to the issuance of a Silver Certificate. L EGAL TENDER: A currency has been declared to be legal by a government and demands it • citizens to use it, often to the detrement of the people and the growth of a tyrannical government. The Liberty Dollar should NEVER be described as "Legal Tender" as that is a nice way to say: forced government plunder. R EDEMPTION: RCs are NOT required to redeem the Silver Certificates for Silver Libertys as • NORFED does that. If you get a redemption request, direct them to call NORFED at the toll free phone number on every Gold and Silver Certificate. I NVESTMENT: This "I-word" is never used because The Liberty Dollar is not an investment. • It pays no interest, no return, nor promises any appreciation. Any profit you may enjoy is the direct result of your own efforts as an independent RC. I NFLATION: Usually the government's thief of the people's money by creating more currency • and thereby diluting the purchasing power of their currency's value. The Liberty Dollar is "inflation proof" and brings direct competition to this legalized theft. C OIN: It is something issued by a government. NORFED's one ounce Silver Liberty should not • be referred to as a coin. Simply call it by its name, "Silver Liberty" B ILL: Is a debt instrument. NORFED's currency should not be called a Bill because it is a • value backed Silver Certificate. It is not produced by debt generation. S ELL: The Currency is not sold. It is exchanged for those dreaded Federal Reserve Notes and • as such, the exchange is not subject to sales tax. N OTE: It is the same as a Bill, a debt instrument. ALDs are not notes. • B ANK: NORFED is not a bank, nor associated with any governmental agency. The Liberty • Dollar is a private currency - of, by, and for The People. It can not be used to pay taxes nor is it intended to evade any lawful tax. Quote of the Month 1. "Whoever controls the volume of money in any country is absolute master of all industry and commerce." President James A. Garfield Redemption Center of the Month 2. There are not many like Charles Key, legendary Oklahoma State Senator who single handed lead the Committee to convene their own Grand Jury to investigate the Oklahoma bombing. As our country recovers from the bombings in New York City and the Pentagon, Charles deserves special mention and is gratefully acknowledged as the Redemption Center of the Month. As we mentioned last month, the committee's "Final Report" is now published and stands as a fact in the face of the government's lies regarding that tragic event in our nation's history. Thank you Charles for devoting six years of your life to bring the truth of the Oklahoma bombing to national attention. Question of the Month 3. QUESTION: How do I use my old RC# to sign up for my new RC# in the Affiliate Program?

ANSWER: You don't. The old RC# is not needed nor used in reregistering your old RC in the new Affiliate Program database. Just simply follow the simple instructions in Article 4 of this Newsletter. And if you have any problems, please email NORFED or call 888.421.6181. Again, thank you for your support for this important and profitable event for NORFED and you. Petition to Abolish the Income Tax 4. My thanks to Pep Stofen, a very active RC, who sent this Petition to Abolish the Income Tax. Please copy and paste into a new email and send it to: [email protected]. OFFICIAL PETITION TO THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES Petition to Abolish the Income Tax WHEREAS, the Founders of America, the authors of our Declaration of Independence and our Constitution, were opposed to any direct tax on individuals (U.S. Constitution Article 1, Section 9), and WHEREAS, no Income tax was lawful prior to the Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution in 1913, and WHEREAS, the United States grew and flourished, rising to the status of a world power without any need for an income tax, and WHEREAS, the Income tax has far exceeded the modest intent of its original supporters and became an instrument for the federal government to enslave its citizens, invading their private affairs and denying the Sovereignty of the people and their rights to their personal liberty, THEREFORE, we the undersigned earnestly petition our elected Representatives in both houses of Congress to immediately propose, pass, and refer to the state legislatures for ratification the following Amendment: The Sixteenth Article of Amendment to the Constitution of the United States is hereby repealed. Signed______________________________________________ Print Name___________________________________________ Address_____________________________________________ City____________________________State_____Zip_________ Email__________________________Phone________________ Please note – The best results noted to date, is to pass this petition to as many church members in your community, the groups that meet in the church, and friends of friends in all churches. Calendar…Personal…etc. 5. What a crazy month! In spite of "Terrible Tuesday", my National Tour has continued with hundreds of appointments. As detailed in last month's Newsletter, October will take me to Hawaii, back to LA, on to Las Vegas and finally "home" to Miami about October 24th. If you are in any of these places, please

let me know so we can meet. As usual, if I don't hear from you, you probably will not hear from me. Hope to see you soon. Many thanks again for your continued support and efforts to return America to value - one Liberty Dollar at a time. Without you, success is not possible in our lifetime. Thanks!
