Julian,

My Paypal address is SS2061 at CamaroSS.net  My kids are going through their
rooms as we speak collecting clothes and toys to take to a shelter in a
little while.  We are also going to take a couple of laptops with us to let
people there send email to anyone they wish just to let someone know they
are alive and well.  

We will collect any funds via Paypal for as long as we can.  On Tuesday,
when schools are open again (holiday weekend here), we will take the monies
to the school for them to disburse as they see fit.

I thank you for your support and thank you on behalf of the beneficiaries.

Mike
