Folks, I just looked back at all the posts I have made about this little project, and I don't like what I see. It absolutely looks like I'm trying to toot my own horn, and for that, I'm sorry. I was so excited to get friends I don't get to physically see to work on something meaningful together, and to include as many as possible, that I went way beyond the irritation factor, and that certainly wasn't the intent.

I now have the names of 12 worthy causes submitted by my friends here. What I'm going to do is send a check every month to one of these causes. That means each will get one a year, which will be much larger than the original $100.00 one. I'll keep it up for the forseeable future. With each check, I'll think kindly of the member here who took the time to identify the charity and feel good about our joint effort. It's just time for all my "rants ansd raves" to stop.

All the best to all my good friends here.

You are important to me.
