The events of the last few days got me thinking about how lucky I am - I know that my family is safe, we have a roof over our heads, plenty to eat and drink, and disposable income for my hobbies.
Where am I going with this? This month, I've got a challenge for the subscribers of this list. I'd like you to donate to your favorite charity for hurricane Katrina relief (if you haven't already). I personally donated at www.salvationarmyusa.org - but would also recommend www.redcross.org. So skip that latte, extra slice of pizza, or Edison Standard. Dig into your pocket and think about the folks that have nothing tonight. Loran P.S. To head off the inevitable "you shouldn't be using this list to beg for donations" email.... I own and maintain the server on which Phono-L resides, pay for the dedicated DSL line to that server, and am the list-owner. I figure that gives me the right ;)
