I thought that would get your attention.
DU members, including me, have given over $3500 in one day to DU's official charity. I have noticed for 2 days the posts by Skinner on this topic have gotten scant attention and few comments but stupid adrenalin inducing posts on mountain climbers, smoking and circumcision cant keep up with the outraged comments and new posts. $3500 is a good start but it is really a drop in the bucket to what a community like this with over 99,000 members should be able to give.
I think DU members are better than we have shown so far.
Get up off your ass and give some money to charity. If every member gave a measly $5 it would equal nearly half a million dollars. We should be able to scrape together at least $100 grand.
Quit yer bitchen about smoking and lost mountain climbers and dig into you pockets and give the equivalent of a Starbucks cup of coffee to this charity and show that this group does more than beat problems to death with our keyboards.

Jesus Christ!
You remember him, he was the one who advocated giving to the poor and helping the underprivileged.
