The card is actually white in color. A former coworker here in KAO
partipated in a lottery 4 or 5 years ago. He was successful in his
effort because he produced a couple of hundred applications and
drove down to the DC area. He then seeded all the mailboxes that
fed the post office that delivered mail to the Immigration Dpt.
the night before the lottery. He is now working in Colorado
somewhere and holds a card as well as his Polish passport. He
put a lot of effort into bending the odds.
They have since changed the rules and are allowing only one
application, so the chances of landing a card are *MUCH* smaller.
US embassy is the best place to start.

| The lottery does not apply this year to Canadians ... (Unless you were born
in certain overseas places like Ireland, but not England) ... hasn't for
several years ...
