    Bill Chretien just won a brand new red Ferrari convertible in a very
unusual contest.
    Chretien was surfing the Internet, when he discovered Hydrogen Media --
one of the nation's fastest growing Internet solutions firms.  Hydrogen Media
was celebrating its rapid success, by offering one of the nation's fastest
cars (a Ferrari), to one lucky visitor of HydrogenCity.com -- Hydrogen Media's
showcase of luxury items and new technology.
    "It was the easiest thing I've ever done," says Chretien.  "I just clicked
on the banner, became a HydrogenCity.com member, and won a Ferrari."
    Bill has lived in Jacksonville Beach, Florida, for the past three years
and works for CNP Solutions.  Hydrogen Media will fly Bill and his family to
the company's high tech headquarters in Tampa Bay.
    A host of celebrities, including Tampa Bay Buccaneer Bert Emanuel and
NASCAR pro Joe Nemechek, will congratulate Bill at the gala in his honor.
    "This party will be a one-of-a-kind," says Hydrogen Media CEO, Scott
Gostyla.  "One man will drive off with a Ferrari, but everyone will have
something to celebrate."
    Hydrogen Media's Grand Prize Gala kicks off at 6 p.m., February 9, near
Hydrogen Media headquarters.  For an official invitation, visit
