Wow, that's amazing. I'm pretty happy so many people donated for this. It must be horrible for everyone who was involved with it.

30% who would be eligible (certain age groups) or 30% overall (counting the entire population)?

Not sure. It was a poll, so I'm not sure of their demographics. I'm figuring it was pulled by an automated telephone call to registered adults.

I am one of the statistics.. :-)

I've given smaller amounts to multiple charities instead of a lump sum to one, as each has their "thing" that they do...

God I just hope it all goes to really help the people that need it most and there's not a lot of siphoning going on by the folks handling the money.

**TheMob** · 01-07-2005, 09:45 PM

that's very good to hear
