Offended.... I don't think  so..  I just pointed out the stupitity
of sending donations.   Keep in mine Larry did not ask for this
but someone else did on his behalf.  People do a lot of stupid
things with there money.  I work to hard for mine, to be
stupid with it, and to many people (like layers) are trying to take it.
If any Vanagon driver need a hand, food or a roof over there head,
I'll give them a hand, but you better need it.

To criticize me, or anyone else, for doing what I wish with my $$ is shameful at best, although often par for the course on this list.
