I thought of an idea for a poetic terrorism. Make 200 fliers that say there is a chance to win an 100,000 dollar scholarship. The flier would say that there are 10 spots available. To win the contest you must go online to a website provided (that was made special for this PT) and enter some information. The information is not very personal. For example, it would ask for your name and what school you attend. I would assume that any college student would try to do something simple to obtain a huge scholarship. You would log in and the website would say that "You won!" to everyone. It would tell you to proceed and at the end of a long process, which you are extremely excited about, it tells you that there is no real money. The art to this torture is the excitement they once felt a moment ago. It's harsh but exciting.

Yes, this is a little harsh. It would be less harsh (and meaningful) if perhaps the web site presented some useful or thought provoking additional information, like for example - SORRY, YOUR $100,000 HAS JUST BE REQUISITIONED BY THE US MILITARY TO FUND THE DEPLOYMENT OF MURDEROUS HI-TECH WEAPONRY (or something along those lines).
