acually it is St Valentine's Day Eric W Rudd [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) To: [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) ; [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) ; [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) Sent: Monday, February 14, 2011 11:06 AM Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Help needed-and so do we I support you Don and anyone else that uses that information in the study to further the cause. I actually know of few that have chosen to dedicate their professional lives in the area of spinal cord injuries as most insurance companies don't see the need and will not pay. And this is truly sad. Now I did visit the site survey and noticed that someone who takes the survey, might.... just might win the opportunity to a 200 dollar Visa Card. I don't know what the odds are as it was not stated. The survey did not list any of the National Spinal Cord hospitals as endorsements. That would be nice. Nor did it acknowledge any approval from our esteem host and site owner: Jim Lubin. What a day to take a survey, Valentine Day. Best Wishes In a message dated 2/14/2011 10:59:18 A.M.

If helping those of us with SCI earn her a decent living wage, say more power to her--she's earned it. I understand that there are people out there who take advantage and greedily prey on people with disabilities, but in my opinion requests such as this are not in that category. I'll be happy to look at the survey and fill it out if I can be of help. Good luck with your degree, Shanna. Don. ____________________________________ From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> To: [email protected]; [email protected] Sent: Mon, February 14, 2011 9:42:47 AM Subject: [QUAD-L] Help needed-and so do we Greetings Shanna, You are not the first, nor with you be the last to enlist members here for your study. Each year around this time of the season the Quad-List receives several requests for us to share tangible information so that people like yourself can graduate and make tons of money, while many here are barely living at the poverty level.. just to survive. May I ask.. Is your present study supported by the National Spinal Cord Assoc as an approved study? Is your present study supported by any of the national disAbility programs or support groups? I personally haven't taken the time yet to visit your survey, but it would be nice to see that some kind of benefit would be available to those who are supplying you with the information for your survey to graduate and make tons of money. I hope you never, never forget those who supported your study. Best Wishes In a message dated 2/14/2011 9:44:04 A.M.
