Dear Michael et al.,
Happy Thanksgiving to the thread. I hope you won't mind my passing this on to you. It seems a worthwhile site for us to pay attention to this week especially!

Off Topic
To All: Here is a wonderful site. You might want to visit it daily, and email it to all your friends with the suggestion that they do it, too, and pass it on to their friends. You'll see why if you go there:

thehungersite.com

You simply click the button once a day and your click will have induced a corporate sponsor to donate a specified amount of free food to a hungry person.
The amount of food -- rice, wheat, maize or other staple food -- you send by your click varies according to how many corporations (or, occasionally, individuals) are sponsoring
the site that day. Today it is 2 1/4 cups. I have seen it as little as 3/4 cup, and 2 1/4 cups is as high as the amount has been.
Maybe your company would even want to sponsor the site? Each sponsor pays for 1/4
cup of food....
"Every 3.6 seconds someone dies of hunger; 3/4 of the deaths are children under 5."
(Sorry for the interruption!)
