An OT thought for you all ...

In 3 months or so it will be Xmas, and most of us here will still be fat cats, enjoying the fruits of our investments and speculations. How many of us (I'd guess none) would say that they actually NEED all the money they made this year ?????

So lets just spare a thought for the less fortunate of the world, and consider what we would actually lose by putting as little as 1% of our winnings back into the world. Lets take a moment to think about giving it to the people who need it most (who are in many cases the very people who are exploited in order to help our chosen companies to MAKE us rich).

1% of $ 1/4 million is a mere $2,500. That's peanuts if you made the $250,000, but think what could that do for an Ethiopian family, or the computer it could buy for a school in a poor district, or the number of doses of aids medication it could provide in West Africa ... or ... or ...

Please ... Please ... Think about it ... Then find a charity that fits your view of life, and give them something this Xmas.

My apologies if this has taken up your time ...

now lets get back to the game ...
