>>"On the other hand I once had a man come up to me in a disadvantaged part of Oakland, wanting to sell me a ring for 10 or 20 dollars, so he could hire transportation to get to his probation appointment. I gave him the money and told him to keep the ring."<< Reminds me of this true story that happened to me a few years ago in New York. My wife and I were sitting on the train in Grand Central Station waiting for it to leave. A young woman came in and announced to the whole car that her purse had been stolen and she needed $10 to buy a train ticket to Stamford. The silence was deafening. Finally I stood up and told the woman to sit down and that I would pay for her ticket when the conductor came to our car. Well, she gave me this dirty look....said "f**k you" and got off the train. Was I surprised? Not in the least. Jim
