This is a revision of the same article I posted last week, taking into
accounts the comments I've received and this time *gasp* it's actually
spell-checked :)

Ares Light Rope 2100
Adam Jury <fro@***.ab.ca>

(>) Hey folks, someone snagged this off of some Ares public datastore and
sent it my way. Looks like it may be of some interest to you guys and
gals, so here it is.

The Ares Light Rope 2100 is a huge improvement over a great product of the
late 20th century. Flexible like a garden hose, but filled with
near-unbreakable high-concentration lights, the ALR 2100 is the most
versatile and reliable of similar equipment on the market today!

Originally used as fire fighting equipment, this style of lights has many
other practical applications in the corporate world. Short strips can be
used to mark locations at night, or during foggy days. With the new
Colourstrip, you can pre-order your colourstrip to come in a single fixed
colour on the RGB scale. With the Enhanced Colourstrip and Ares Colourstrip
Coordinator, you can instantly change to any colour on the RGB scale!
Helicopter landing lights, traffic direction arrows, these ropes can do
almost anything!

Guaranteed for 5000 hours of operation, ALR 2100 is resistant to water,
acid, fire, and will no snap under pressure! (Wish we could make all our
corp-execs like that, ha ha :-) ) In the unlikely event that one of the
bulbs breaks, the rest of them keep on ticking!

ALR 2100 can run using a dual plug system; taking up both plugs on a
standard outlet, one industrial sized outlet, or via an Ares Battery Pack
(12 hours of operation).

Ares Light Rope 2100 is shipped in 10 metre increments. Please call for
discount pricing on large orders. We guarantee two today delivery to
anywhere in the CAS, UCAS, and most of North America!

Pricing:

Regular : 20¥ / 10 metres
Colourstrip : 30¥ / 10 metres
Enhanced Colourstrip : 40¥ / 10 metres

Ares Colourstrip Coordinator:

(>) And it can be used to send messages quickly, if you don't mind being
spotted. Lay out the line in the shape of the letters you want and switch
it on.

(>) Of course, everybody and their mother will know what you're trying to
say... Could be kind of a drawback in many situations.
(>) Six-Blade

(>) Some businesses use it in place of traditional neon signs. This
lightrope is much less prone to breakage (like when some gangpunk throws a
brick at your sign) and it can be formed into the same shapes. Plus it's
cheaper.
