+ I’ve been trying to donate some $$$ (I don’t really need a 200 gig hard drive) to a Canadian branch of any of the international relief agencies. They all assume everyone has a credit card, or will send a cheque. None of them seem to have heard about paypal. In the morning I’m going to drive over to the Red Cross offices in Burnaby. -the donation will be a late Christmas gift to my friends..

** donated $200.00. Felt good.
