Many folk on this list will be heading to one or two thunderously good
parties this New Years. (Heck, maybe you'll even be like the Ulstermen of
legend, and hit them all!!)
If you're hosting one, I would like to make a humble suggestion. Get out
a donation basket, and place it where all your guests and revellers can see
it.
The death-toll in southern Asia just reached 63,000. Now, the water-borne
plagues have begun, and that number is expected to double. This is the
single largest incident of human death and misery to occur within our
lifetimes.
Decide amongst yourselves whether to send the proceeds to the Red Cross,
Doctors Without Borders, World Vision, CCF...whomever you trust to get
these funds where it will ease some of the horror.
Both the Talmud and Koran say that whoever saves a life, saves the entire
world. This extended community has the potential to save galaxies.
