howardwhite 6 #1 December 4, 2002 There's an outfit called Type T which seems to be blanketing DZs with mailings and decals promoting something -- I guess it's apparel. At one DZ this weekend I saw envelopes individually addressed to everyone listed on the DZ web site as staff. Type T is defined roughly as people into "extreme" sports and from their web site, it appears skydiving is something of a late comer to their world. http://www.typet.com/default.html Does anyone have a clue about who these people are and what they are about?

howardwhite 6 #4 December 4, 2002 Yabbut, each of maybe 40 9x 12 envelopes was individually addressed from names gathered from the web site. And each envelope contained an individually named letter ..."Dear John," "Dear Mary." Had to have cost a bundle, and I saw a lot get thrown away. Just wonder if they've targeted a bunch of DZs and how they can afford this stuff for selling T-shirts. HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
