*A SPECIAL
APPEAL TO LARGER DONORS: Many of our donors give us what they can when they can.
In some cases it may not be a lot but it's important to them to toss something
in the hat, (important to us too). We're making a special appeal this month to
readers/supporters that may be able to provide a little more substantial
support. If that's you, we would greatly appreciate it. Thanks sincerely to all.
