I'm not saying that it's bogus or a chain letter, but just that it's apparently not new. Here's the HuffPo link, posted 11/29/2010:

(on edit) and here's another appearance, from a few days before that:

The source website, "acompanyofone.org" has been suspended by its hosting company, as has that of its registered owner (Buddy Meyers, of "tobuds.com"), apparently due to lack of payment, in that the owner is also a 99er. I found evidence that people have offered to put his site back online for free, but I'm not sure he's aware of that.

Update: I found Bud's blog: http://bud-meyers.blogspot.com /

Peace,
