I offer a half-hearted apology for making this post. This has absolutely nothing to do with P.G.S., yet in a way it has something to do with all of us.
The British R.S.P.B. has contacted me saying that I can save an acre of this irreplacable rainforest for just £28 ($60). Liz and myself are taking an acre each, and I urge each and every one of you to visit their website and to do likewise or whatever you can to help. |

Please visit the site using this link. The video footage there is depressing, but I urge you to watch it. |

A piece of useless? information for you.
One acre is 90.75 yards of a 53.33-yard-wide American football field. The full field, including the end zones, covers approximately 1.32 acres. |

Will have a look Richard. Not why I am writing though. My son is also called Richard - and his wife's name is Liz. Not statistically unusual I guess - it just caught my eye. |

Thanks for looking at this. A word of caution though. They followed up my donation with a request for the upkeep. Well,I've spent a lot more on a lot less worthwhile enterprises.
Re the names, this sort of thing seems to happen to me a lot. Are people with certain names more inclined to marry others with certain names? Intriguing. |
